Technavio said it is expected that the global senior living market will grow to US$12.74 billion by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate of 5.9%.

Patient data management through mobile and electronic health records has become a major trend in long-term care, providing insights into patient weight, diet, exercise and vital signs.
Correspondingly, ancillary services such as mobile apps, wearable devices, trackers, communication devices and smart alarms are also in high demand.
