Geri-Gadgets® Expands Across New York State Through NYSOFA SADS Initiative

I’m proud to share that Geri-Gadgets® is part of a new initiative with the New York State Office for the Aging, supporting engagement across Social Adult Day Services (SADS) programs statewide.

At a time when loneliness, agitation, and caregiver stress continue to rise, the need for simple, scalable, non-pharmacological solutions has never been greater.

Geri-Gadgets® was designed to meet that need.

Our SafeTouch™ silicone sensory kits are:

 • Washable and non-toxic

 • Designed for multi-user care environments

 • Effective across all cognitive levels, including non-verbal individuals

Most importantly, they create moments of connection, without requiring words.

This collaboration reflects a broader shift in care:

 From managing behaviors to understanding unmet needs

 From passive activity to active engagement

 From isolation to connection

Grateful to be working alongside forward-thinking leaders who recognize that quality of life is essential.
