K4Connect CEO Scott Moody plays Santa and delivers an Alexa Echo Dot to Blossom, a resident at Kisco Senior Living’s The Cardinal.
Santa unpacked a bag full of smart technology at The Cardinal at North Hills’ recent holiday party.
K4Connect CEO Scott Moody, dressed as the legendary figure, passed out Echo Dot devices Dec. 19 to residents of the Raleigh, NC, Kisco Senior Living life plan community as part of its expanded partnership with the operator.
The devices use Amazon Alexa, with K4Connect’s flagship product, K4Community, to provide voice-first smart home experiences for residents. Residents can access community content; manage their smart home and wellness devices; communicate with loved ones, community members and the front desk; and sign up for events and outings.
With the visit from Santa, The Cardinal is now fully voice-enabled. And with that visit, The Cardinal became one of the most recent communities to harness Alexa for its residents and staff. But it certainly won’t be the last.
