Co-DESIGN for Dementia: A Holistic Digital Platform for Integrated Dementia Self-management Support

This project aims to co-design and co-create a holistic digital health and well-being platform with and for people with dementia to provide enhanced dementia self-management support. The platform will integrate a visual personalised care plan for people living with dementia, provide timely access to services and supports when required, tailored to the specific needs of a person living with dementia and their carers, to support them to live independently in their own homes. 

 

Smart Self-Care for Dementia

Persons with dementia should be at the centre of decision-making about their care including basic activities (e.g. feeding and dressing), advanced activities (e.g. finances and using transportation), and meaningful activities (e.g. social and recreational pastimes). However, there is limited involvement of people with dementia in design of technology to support their care.
