Lance A. Slatton Joins Memoryboard as Brand Ambassador to Support Family Caregivers

Published

on

All Home Care Matters announces a new partnership bringing together Memoryboard and “The Senior Care Influencer” to expand awareness of practical technology supporting older adults, family caregivers, and aging in place.

Livonia, Michigan, United States, 20th Aug 2026 – All Home Care Matters is proud to announce a new partnership between its founder and host, Lance A. Slatton, widely known as “The Senior Care Influencer,” and Memoryboard, naming Slatton an official Brand Ambassador for Memoryboard and bringing together two missions centered on supporting older adults, family caregivers, and the professionals who serve them.

 

As the host and founder of All Home Care Matters, President of AlzAuthors, co-founder of Enriched Life Home Care Services, author, caregiver advocate, and nationally recognized voice in senior care, Slatton has spent years helping families better understand the realities of caregiving, aging, dementia, home care, and long-term care.

The new partnership represents a shared commitment between Memoryboard and Slatton to help make everyday life more manageable for older adults while giving families and caregivers practical tools that can strengthen communication, connection, confidence, and independence.

“Some of the most meaningful innovations in caregiving are not about adding more complexity to a family’s day. They are about removing it,” said Lance A. Slatton. “What immediately stood out to me about Memoryboard is how thoughtfully it addresses something families struggle with every single day: helping an aging loved one know what is happening, what they need to remember, and that the people who love them are still connected to them.”

Technology Designed Around the Older Adult

Memoryboard was created to help older adults remain informed, connected, and supported throughout their day without requiring them to become comfortable with complicated new technology.

Through Memoryboard, family members and caregivers can remotely send photos, reminders, appointments, daily schedules, and personal messages directly to the device. That information is then displayed clearly on the screen for the older adult to see.

There is no need for the individual receiving the information to manage an app, answer a phone, navigate menus, or learn an unfamiliar piece of technology simply to access the information being shared with them.

That simplicity is central to the Memoryboard mission.

For families supporting an older adult who may be experiencing memory loss, dementia, cognitive changes, or difficulty following daily routines, even seemingly small pieces of information can have an enormous impact.

hat time is the doctor’s appointment? Who is coming to visit today? Has the medication reminder already been shared? What is happening this afternoon? When will a family member call? What day is it?

A familiar photograph, a personal note, or a clearly displayed reminder can provide more than information. It can provide reassurance, orientation, familiarity, and connection.

Slatton believes that distinction is especially important.

“When someone is living with memory challenges, we have to remember that what may feel like a simple reminder to us can represent reassurance and confidence to them,” Slatton said. “Being able to look at one place and see a familiar face, a message from family, an appointment, or what is happening that day can help reduce uncertainty while allowing the older adult to remain more engaged in their own routine.”

Supporting the Caregiver as Well as the Older Adult

Memoryboard was also developed with another important person in mind: the caregiver.

Family caregiving frequently involves managing a seemingly endless stream of information. Appointments, visits, schedules, medications, meals, transportation, home care, family communication, and everyday reminders can quickly become part of a caregiver’s daily responsibilities.

At the same time, many caregivers are balancing careers, raising children, managing their own households, and coordinating care from another home—or even another state.

Technology can be valuable in that environment, but only when it makes caregiving easier rather than creating another task to manage.

“Caregivers already have enough on their plates,” Slatton said. “Technology should not become one more thing they have to worry about. The best solutions are the ones that quietly fit into the family’s life and help solve a real problem. Memoryboard gives families another way to communicate important information while allowing the older adult to receive it in a format designed to be simple and accessible.”

Why Memoryboard Chose Lance A. Slatton

Memoryboard’s decision to partner with Slatton reflects his longstanding work within the caregiving and senior care communities.

Through All Home Care Matters, Slatton has helped educate and connect family caregivers, older adults, healthcare professionals, researchers, nonprofit organizations, advocates, policymakers, innovators, and leaders from across the aging and long-term care continuum.

His work has consistently focused on helping families become better informed, ensuring caregivers feel seen and supported, and elevating conversations that can improve the lives of older adults.

Memoryboard saw a natural alignment between that work and its own mission.

“Lance has built tremendous trust within the caregiving and senior care community because his work begins with the realities families experience every day,” the Memoryboard team shared. “His commitment to older adults, family caregivers, education, and better care closely reflects what Memoryboard was created to support. We are excited to welcome Lance as a Brand Ambassador and to work together to reach families who may benefit from this technology.”

For Slatton, accepting the Brand Ambassador role was about more than representing a product. It was about aligning with a company whose work addresses challenges he has witnessed throughout his career in senior care

“Being named a Brand Ambassador for Memoryboard is meaningful because I want the organizations I partner with to share the same fundamental goal that has guided my work for years: making life better for older adults and the people who care for them,” Slatton said. “Memoryboard is addressing a very real part of caregiving—the need to remain connected and informed without making life more complicated for the person receiving care.”

“Families do not need technology simply for the sake of having more technology. They need tools that serve a purpose. They need solutions that recognize the realities of aging, caregiving, dementia, and independence. That is what makes me excited about introducing more families to Memoryboard.”

Preserving Independence Without Sacrificing Connection

One of the most difficult balances families face is determining how to provide additional support without unnecessarily taking independence away from an aging loved one.

A person may need more reminders than they once did. They may occasionally forget appointments or become confused about the day’s schedule. Family members may want to remain closely involved even when they cannot physically be present.

Those circumstances do not automatically mean that an older adult should lose control over their day.

In many cases, the right support can help preserve independence longer.

“Supporting someone does not have to mean taking over everything for them,” Slatton said. “One of the goals of good caregiving should always be to preserve as much dignity, autonomy, and independence as safely possible. Sometimes providing the right information at the right moment can make a meaningful difference in helping someone continue navigating their day with greater confidence.”

A Partnership Focused on Education

The partnership between Memoryboard and Slatton will extend beyond simply introducing the product to the All Home Care Matters community.

Together, Memoryboard, Slatton, and the All Home Care Matters team plan to develop and share educational content, real-world caregiving conversations, product demonstrations, family experiences, and resources designed to help people better understand how practical technology can fit into an overall caregiving plan.

The collaboration will also help create greater awareness around a larger issue: how families can thoughtfully use technology to support aging in place, dementia care, family communication, independence, and caregiver coordination.

“This partnership gives us an opportunity to do something much bigger than simply talk about a device,” Slatton said. “We can have meaningful conversations about why communication becomes so important as someone ages, what families experience when memory begins to change, how caregivers can support independence, and where thoughtfully designed technology can help.”

For families confronting dementia or cognitive decline, these conversations are especially important.

There is no single technology that can eliminate the challenges associated with memory loss, nor can technology replace the presence, judgment, compassion, and human connection provided by families and professional caregivers.
But the right technology can become another tool within that circle of support.

“Nothing replaces human connection,” Slatton said. “Technology should strengthen that connection, not compete with it. What I appreciate about Memoryboard is that much of what appears on the screen ultimately comes from another person—a family member, caregiver, or someone who wants that older adult to know what is happening and to know they are thinking about them.”

Meeting Families Where They Are

Every caregiving journey looks different.

Some families live together. Others coordinate care across cities or states. Some older adults remain almost entirely independent while needing occasional reminders. Others are living with progressive cognitive changes and require greater involvement from family members or professional caregivers.

There is no universal solution for every family.

There is, however, tremendous value in creating tools flexible enough to support families at different points along that journey.

That is ultimately what both Memoryboard and Slatton hope this partnership will accomplish: introduce families to another practical resource while continuing to provide education that helps them make informed decisions about the care and support of the people they love.

“Caregiving is rarely about one enormous decision,” Slatton said. “It is often hundreds of small decisions made day after day. Anything that can make some of those moments easier, improve communication, provide reassurance, or help someone remain more confident in their own home deserves our attention.”

Looking Ahead

As Brand Ambassador, Lance A. Slatton will work alongside Memoryboard to expand awareness of technology designed specifically around the everyday needs of older adults and caregivers.

The partnership will also provide opportunities to demonstrate Memoryboard in real caregiving scenarios, share educational resources with families, and continue conversations about supporting older adults through memory changes, dementia, aging in place, and evolving care needs.

For Memoryboard, the collaboration represents an opportunity to reach a growing community of families searching for practical support.

For Slatton, it represents another extension of a mission that has remained consistent throughout his work in senior care.

“I have had the privilege of hearing the stories of thousands of caregivers, families, professionals, and older adults,” Slatton said. “Again and again, the message is the same: families want to do the best they possibly can for the people they love, but they need information, resources, and support to do it. I am proud to become a Brand Ambassador for Memoryboard and excited about what we can accomplish together to help more families feel informed, connected, and supported.”

Memoryboard shares that enthusiasm.

This partnership marks the beginning of an ongoing collaboration focused on education, caregiver support, aging in place, memory care, family connection, and practical technology designed with older adults in mind.

Most importantly, it reflects a shared belief that while caregiving can be complicated, the tools created to support families do not have to be.

Sometimes, making one important piece of the day a little clearer can make the entire day feel more manageable.

Physical AI Lab Nature Will Unveils Natura-1, First General Foundation Model for the Physical World

Published

on

Prioritizing dexterous workflow and zero-shot instruction following, the Natura-1 is Nature Will’s first Physical General Foundation Model aimed at pioneering advanced robotics applications

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, United States, 16th Oct 2026 – Nature Will, a physical AI lab dedicated to building physical AGI, today announced the launch of Natura-1, a 50-billion-parameter physical general foundation model for dexterous hand control and zero-shot instruction following in advanced robotics applications. Pre-trained on over 1 million hours of egocentric human data, the Natura-1 combines instruction following with the ability to manipulate to changing task conditions and sustained actions over extended interactions, bringing the versatility of the hand within reach of a model that connects human intent to physical action.

With the rapid advancements in general AI and large language models, AI models developed for physical applications represent the next frontier in technological progress. Natura-1 showcases that generalization and fine physical control can be learned together in a foundation model for dexterous hands, applicable to any field where fine or delicate manipulations are required as part of the creation process. Built on a 50 billion parameter mixture-of-experts model trained jointly on language, images, video, and action, Natura-1 operates at a 100-millisecond control loop to unify language, vision, and high-degree-of-freedom action that connects language-directed behavior with the physical control.

“We believe general models that can handle every task must exist, and that those models must utilize dexterous hands,” said Ning Ding, CEO of Nature Will. “Natura-1 is our first step towards models that scale from human experience, building infrastructure that enables us to create the model from the ground up and that allows it to scale to any application. The Natura-1 is a 50-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts model with dexterous manipulation, long-horizon execution, and zero-shot instruction following, making it truly capable of scaling human experience into purposeful action.”

The model represents Nature Will’s first physical foundation model that is capable of general-purpose dexterous manipulation using real hardware, acting as a breakthrough in the development of general foundation models made to interact in the real world. Designed to scale, the model autonomously executes sustained, continuous workflows and follows complex natural language instructions, enabling it to reason through spatial constraints, multi-object relationships, and negative conditions.

Trumpery Times Launches Satirical Humor Website Featuring Fictional Characters and Parody Stories

Published

on

Trumpery Times has launched as a satirical website publishing fictional stories and parody articles about entertainment, internet culture and modern media. Every story is clearly labeled as fiction.

Sheridan, Wyoming, United States, 16th Oct 2026 – Trumpery Times has launched as a satirical digital publication that uses parody, exaggeration and fiction to present fictional stories about entertainment, internet culture and popular media. The website is now live at https://trumperytimes.com and is publishing its initial collection of fictional stories and invented profiles.

The publication borrows the familiar language of online media, including headlines, interviews, profiles and feature stories, and uses it as the format for its humorous fiction. Each story begins with a recognizable cultural idea and then develops it into a fictional storyline. All characters, events and situations on the site are fictional and are presented as satire, not as factual reporting.

Coverage includes celebrity culture, film, popular culture and the media industry itself. The publication is written for readers who enjoy satire and parody related to entertainment and media. Familiar formats such as headline-driven stories, celebrity profiles and entertainment features serve as the framework, while the content inside them is invented.

“Satire relies on recognizable subject matter,” said Lucas Komerlin, founder of Trumpery Times. “Readers need to recognize the starting point before the story moves into fiction. Trumpery Times starts with familiar subjects and develops them into fictional stories.”

That approach shapes how every story on the site is built. A familiar idea provides the starting point, and exaggeration is used to develop the story. As the story develops, the connection to reality gradually loosens until the situation on the page is clearly invented. The goal is for readers to recognize where a story began while following how the story develops.

“Each story begins with a familiar idea and then develops into an invented situation,” said Komerlin. “The challenge is deciding how far that idea can be extended while keeping a clear connection to what inspired it.”

The publication’s tagline, “Don’t Believe Everything You Read,” reflects the purpose of the publication. It signals that the site is built for entertainment and that its stories are not intended to be taken as news. Stories are written as clearly labeled fiction, and the familiar formats of media are used as a creative device, not as a way to mislead.

“The intention is not to disguise fiction as news, but to use the familiar language of news and popular media to create satire,” said Komerlin.

Trumpery Times combines recognizable cultural references with fictional characters, invented situations and exaggerated narratives, organized around entertainment, film, popular culture and media-themed features.

Trumpery Times aims to give readers a space where familiar parts of contemporary culture appear in fictional and exaggerated forms. Visitors can browse the initial collection of satirical stories and fictional profiles through the website.

About Trumpery Times

Trumpery Times is a satirical digital publication covering entertainment, popular culture and modern media through parody, exaggeration and fictional storytelling. The publication presents familiar cultural ideas through fictional storylines and invented characters. Trumpery Times is operated by Raya Do Yaya LLC. Its guiding principle is simple: “Don’t Believe Everything You Read.” For more information, visit https://trumperytimes.com.
