Book excerpt: The Covid-19 pandemic has brought about unprecedented changes in the way we live our lives, and our reliance on digital connectivity has grown even more rapidly than before. Digitalization is one of the most powerful drivers and potential enablers of positive change across generations in the care of elderly people's health. The pandemic has acted as a catalyst, hastening the adoption of devices, models, and digitalization faster than would otherwise be the case. Furthermore, such older adults had a lower quality of life than those who did not have health-related difficulties with internet use. Because health conditions can impede the use of digital devices or services even among those with digital literacy and access, addressing them is critical for older adults' digital inclusion. Dr Vincent Wee, former Associate Professor CQU is now a Digital Partnership Lead for a government agency. As a volunteer life coach, he has many experiences with seniors, as a Crime Prevention Ambassador (NCPC) and digital transformation drives in the country. In this article, he gave his advice on Digital Wellness for seniors.
