The healthcare provider Aran Salut has introduced Casau on line, a digital socialization project aimed at elderly residents in Val d'Aran who face isolation due to physical autonomy challenges.

The program connects users through their televisions, requiring only an internet connection. The Social Services Department manages the technical setup to ensure that seniors can easily participate in guided activities from their homes.

"These are elderly people, and what we want is to try to help them maintain relationships through this technology."

Sessions are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. A professional team, including social educators and psychologists, leads workshops on physical education, cognitive stimulation, and cooking for the seven women currently enrolled.
