We are delighted to introduce our latest addition to the Care Technology Project - The Alexa Show 10! We first spotted this device during our visit to Blantyre Life, and it immediately caught our attention—so much so that we were inspired to bring one into our Head Office. The Alexa Echo Show 10 is a smart display with a rotating screen that follows your movement, making video calls, reminders, and interactive features more accessible. For our service users, it can provide hands-free assistance, entertainment, and help reduce feelings of loneliness. The process involves strategically installing a secondary Alexa Show device into the homes of qualifying service users, This will enable us to connect with them remotely through video calls using the “call” or “drop-in” features. This allows us to check in quickly, provide reassurance, and offer support when needed—helping to enhance communication, reduce isolation, and promote greater independence for our service users.

Together, they’ll dive into conversations about health and social care, the evolving landscape of the care sector in Scotland , mental and physical wellbeing, the Care Technology Project, other themed topics, and some good old general discussions. We’ve got a very special guest lined up to kick things off — and we will be recording our very first episode soon. 🎉 You’ll be able to watch full episodes on our YouTube channel (yes, we’re filming every episode!) or listen on Spotify if you prefer to tune in on the go.
