Topic Description: 10 steps to Home Health Technology

The population is aging and it’s far cheaper and more comfortable to let seniors age at home rather than move to an institution or extended care facility.  While many off-the-shelf home health tech products can serve this population well, it takes a focused business plan to succeed and be profitable in the aging-at-home marketplace.Until now, integrators have shied away from jumping into the home health tech market for several reasons including fear of liability and the inability to make a convincing case for selling pricey systems to consumers. But it doesn’t have to be that way.  In this highly informative session, CE Pro offers 10 entry-level home health tech solutions to get you jump started in this up and coming new market space.
Webinar Objectives

·  Dealer-to-Dealer Panel – Learn from your peers

Sponsored by CEDIA!!!  Sign Up TODAY to exhibit in the Future Tech Home at the #1 Residential Electronic Systems tradeshow. Dealers are seeking home health opportunities, let them find you at CEDIA 2011!
