In Singapore, most seniors want to age at home – surrounded by familiarity, comfort and independence.

Yet, for their children, that independence can come with a quiet worry: What happens if something happens and I’m not there?

That’s why we partnered with CNA Insider on “Changing Ageing in Asia” – a six-part series spotlighting innovators and community heroes who are reshaping how we approach ageing.

In this episode, we feature Buddy of Parents (BOP), a Singapore-based tech company and DBS Foundation Impact Award recipient, that helps seniors to live safely and confidently at home. With a simple press of a button, seniors are connected directly to trained call agents who can assess the situation and dispatch help when needed.

Through thoughtful, easy-to-use technology, BOP is showing how ageing-in-place does not mean growing old alone – giving families reassurance while enabling seniors to continue enjoying their independence.

Watch the episode to see how simple innovations can make a powerful difference to empower seniors to age safely, confidently and with peace of mind.
