Avoid internet slang, trending language and any words used mostly by teenagers as it will give the elderly a hard time in understanding what is being talked about. If jokes are added, ensure they are as plain as possible and can be easily comprehended.

You can create advertising avenues that invite the aged to participate and learn and also to make new friends. This allows them to mingle with other people in their own age bracket.
