If there’s a group of people that can benefit from new ideas, inventions and technologies to help cope with day to day needs…
These are Dementia and Alzheimer’s patients and their families.
All of these products are designed to make life simpler for dementia and Alzheimer’s patients:
Alerts, motion detectors, easy to use phones, medication dispensers, stove-top fire fighters, automatic faucet controls, memory aids, knob covers, better bathing, emergency bracelets and services.
Become familiar with these and how they work and watch the possibility of better days ahead!
One of the best resources I’ve found to help families with detailed room-by-room instructions on safety tips and product reviews are these two sites:
- The Caring Home [www.thiscaringhome.org] created by Weill Cornell Medical College
- The Alzheimer’s Store [www.alzstore.com or 800-752.3238]
Scanning these sites even if you don’t buy anything is great for educational purposes and to potentially replace something old for something new that works better…
As always if you found these tips useful, please share 🙂
