Easy tools. Genuine assistance. Major confidence gains.
At Treeo – South Ogden, we recognize that technology is not solely for younger individuals. In fact, with the proper support, it can serve as a powerful means to maintain independence, involvement, and connection with the people and activities you cherish the most.
That’s why we’ve incorporated technology into daily life here—always easy to use, never obligatory, and fully backed by support. From iPads provided to every resident to individualized assistance during our weekly “Tech Time,” we aim to simplify the digital realm—and even make it enjoyable.
Here’s how we’re accomplishing this.
Compact Devices, Significant Influence
Every resident at Treeo is given an iPad upon moving in. It may seem like a straightforward device, but it unlocks a universe of opportunities. From video chats with grandchildren to browsing the daily dining options, streaming a beloved show, or catching up on the news—it’s all conveniently accessible.
We’ve witnessed residents beam with joy the first time they FaceTime a loved one or stream a concert they once attended live. It’s not about mastering every new application or trend; it’s about connecting with what—and who—matters most.
Tailored Assistance at “Tech Time”
We understand—technology can be daunting. That’s why we provide weekly Tech Time sessions with our approachable team, which includes Jerik Roberts, our Connections Manager (and self-proclaimed Tech Wizard). Whether it’s configuring a new email account, mastering a smart TV remote, or transferring photos from a smartphone, we’re here to assist.
As Jerik puts it, “Technology can seem intimidating initially, but with a bit of patience and guidance, I observe residents growing in confidence each week.”
We go at your speed. No stress, no technical jargon—just support when—and how—you prefer it.

Daily Advantages of Technology for Seniors
At Treeo – South Ogden, we are convinced that technology should enhance your lifestyle, not complicate it. When paired with the right resources and support, it can encourage residents to feel more connected, self-sufficient, and engaged in their everyday activities.
Here’s how we observe technology positively impacting our residents’ lives daily:
Keep in Touch with Your Loved Ones
