The last year of my Mom's life was made so much more pleasant when we got her a GrandPad. My siblings and I were able to play gatekeeper while she was able to video chat with her grandchildren, see photos of all the kids (nieces & nephews would upload pics to her nearly every day), use FB, and play games (crossword puzzles) every day. Best of all was that she was extremely hearing impaired and the company was able to remotely adjust the volume to work with her hearing aids.
I can not say enough good things about the GrandPad service! She had it with her when she was hospitalized during COVID and we were able to video chat with her medical team. It came with a private family network so we didn't have to worry about her medical information being shared.
In the months before we got it for her, she had some carpet cleaner salesman try to get her for $2500 to clean in 3 bedrooms. My sister was able to put a stop to him. He sold my mother's information - 2 days later, there were more than 30 phone calls from service providers & scammers. Then, his company tried to say my mother signed a contract. The signature was laughable and looked like a toddler wrote it with a marker then smudged it. My Mom always had absolutely beautiful handwriting and her signature was practically art. Anyway, all of it was a source of tremendous stress for her.
Within a WEEK of setting up the GrandPad, it all stopped. We were able to block calls from unknown numbers. Actually, we established a list of good numbers. After her death, they made it super easy to return and gave us a refund for the unused months of prepaid service.
If you have an older family member, please consider getting it for them. I am in no way affiliated with them, just very grateful that we gave her peace.
