Welcome to GrandPad! Offered by The Option Group, the GrandPad is a handheld tablet that is a simple, secure way for seniors to stay socially connected with family, friends, and caregivers.
The GrandPad is specifically designed to be simple to use for seniors or anyone who is not comfortable with today’s cell phones or computers. A simple tap on one of the GrandPad’s large icons allows the user to make a phone call (either audio or video), view photos or play games and music. Emails are simple to create using voice recording and sent with a touch of a button. No typing! The intuitive interface allows the user to tap on telehealth for doctor visits, or use Zoom to join group engagement activities with friends and other groups. There is even a button to call The Option Group, so you can seamlessly reach your Care Coordinator.
The GrandPad is equipped with a cellular connection, so no WI-FI is necessary. More importantly, the device is secure from scammers and telemarketers, only allowing authorized family members or providers to access the user. Unlike many other devices, the GrandPad is tailored specifically for each user and delivered ready for immediate use.
For more information, or to order your GrandPad, please call or email The Option Group.
