I saw this today http://new.cambridgenetwork.co.uk/news/article/default.aspx?objid=69866 and I just can’t help but notice what a fundamentally contradictory thing it is that cutting edge technologies help people whom I hope I may inoffensively describe as ‘past the point of advancement’.
In our role as a solutions developer for people with dementia, and in creating an appropriate environment to live in. Take our #reminiscence image library for example we look back into our past and to a technologically more simple era. Yet here we are with telecare, social media, electronic tracking and many other technology-based approaches being used to maintain and improve life for people with dementia.
find Dementia Signage Systems is a specialist division of Multimount Ltd providing signs for dementia care environments.
I am glad that people are getting increasingly interested in design aspects in dementia.
I have written on it recently on my blog, and would be very interested in any feedback.
