It is crucial to adapt technological interventions to meet the needs of older adults to be successful (Haugh, 2014). It was unclear in the two studies whether adaptations were made specific to older adults.…”

It has been estimated that half of chronic disease medications are not taken as prescribed on developed countries, the rates in countries in developing is less than 50% [17][18][19]. In the United States, half of the 3.2 billion prescriptions dispensed annually are not followed by patients as prescribed [20][21]; this is even lower among patients with chronic disorders [16,[22][23].…”
