## Abstract

Provided herein is an engagement and care support platform (“ECSP”) computer system including at least one processor in communication with at least one memory device for facilitating senior user engagement. The processor is programmed to: (i) register a user through an application, (ii) register a caregiver associated with the user through the application, (iii) generate a senior profile based upon user personal and scheduling data, (iv) build a daily interactive user interface that reflects the senior profile, (v) display the daily interactive user interface at a first client device associated with the user, (vi) cause the first client device to initiate a daily interaction prompt to the user, (vii) determine whether any user interaction was received in response to the daily interaction prompt, and (viii) transmit a daily update message to a second client device associated with the caregiver, including an indication of whether any user interaction was received.

receive, from the third client device, a calendar update to the calendar of events from the second caregiver; and
update the calendar of events based upon the calendar update.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The ECSP computer device of claim 1, wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
receive from the caregiver via the second client device, a request to link calendars; and
link the calendar of events to a digital calendar of the second client device, wherein events on the calendar of events are transferred to the digital calendar of the second client device.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The ECSP computer device of claim 1, wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to instruct the first client device of the senior user to display a plurality of events from the calendar of events in an activity feed interface.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The ECSP computer device of claim 1, wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to instruct the second client device to display a plurality of events associated with the senior user from the calendar of events in an activity feed interface.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The ECSP computer device of claim 1, wherein the second client device comprises a plurality of second client devices, wherein each second client device of the plurality of second client devices are associated with one or more caregivers of the circle of care of the senior user.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The ECSP computer device of claim 1, wherein the caregiver includes one or more of a family member of the senior user, a friend of the senior user, a paid caregiver of the senior user, a person designated by the senior user, and a healthcare professional.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The ECSP computer device claim 1, wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to
if the determination is that the first event is in the calendar of events, provide, to the caregiver via the chatbot, an indication that the first event in the calendar of events.

### Claim 10

A computer-implemented method for facilitating senior user engagement, the method performed by an engagement and care support platform (“ECSP”) computer system including at least one processor in communication with a chatbot and at least one memory device, the ECSP computer system in communication with a first client device associated with a senior user and a second client device associated with a caregiver, the method comprising:
storing a calendar of events for the senior user in the at least one memory device;
receive an input from the second client device related to a first event submitted by the caregiver, wherein the caregiver is a member of a circle of care of the senior user;
