Here's a website we found while we were doing research for our innovation: http://www.squidoo.com/lensmasters/KayeSI
The writer has a lot to say about taking care of Seniors, like her mother. The ideas on this website helped us understand what it was like to live with a Senior.

Things we've learned:
Did you know that nearly 47,000 seniors in the U.S. are hospitalized each year due to cane and walker-related accidents?
Or that Seniors are 7x more likely to be injured in an accident with a walker than with a cane?
Or that 50% of elderly patients who are hospitalized for a broken hip die within two years due to related issues, like blood clots?
However our innovation works, we'll have to make sure it's safe for people to use.
