Access for Seniors
AI-powered platform for senior connection, loneliness mitigation, and aging-services navigation. It helps senior living communities, home health agencies, health systems, and AAAs detect isolation early, keep families connected, and route older adults to the programs and benefits they’ve earned.

What it is
Access for Seniors is a Claude skill: a product, engineering, compliance, and go-to-market assistant for Access For Seniors, a HIPAA-aligned, multi-tenant SaaS platform for senior connection, engagement scoring, caregiver alerts, family outreach, and aging-services navigation (OAA, Medicare, Medicaid, AAA).
It guides the work of building and running that platform: feature design, data models and APIs, engagement scoring, aging-services navigation, infrastructure and deployment, and marketing.
How it works
The skill reads one short entry file and loads reference files only when a topic comes up: the 28 module specs, the conversation engine, engagement scoring, aging services, security, data models and more.
For an aging-services question it matches the need to a program (OAA Title III-B, III-C, III-D, III-E, VII; Medicare Parts A–D; Medicaid LTSS; AAA; Meals on Wheels), gives eligibility criteria, how to apply and the referral handoff, and cites primary sources (acl.gov, medicare.gov, cms.gov, state AAA).
What It Does
AI Companion
Memory-aware conversations with seniors via text and voice (Anthropic Claude).
Engagement Signals
Multi-signal detection of reduced social connection. Not diagnoses: connection signals.
Caregiver Dashboard

Family Outreach
AI-generated, warm, personalized messages that encourage family connection.
Aging-Services Navigation
Match needs to OAA, Medicare, Medicaid, AAA, Meals on Wheels, caregiver respite.
Security & Compliance
HIPAA-aligned defaults (encryption, audit logging, tenant isolation, BAAs). Consent-first: AI features require explicit resident/guardian consent. Elder abuse mandatory reporting support (state-dependent).
