Alzheimer’s Disease Communication Device

Tool to Help People with AD Do Their Daily Activities

As we mention from our previous blog (10 Early Signs of Alzheimer’s Disease), one of the early signs of A.D is having a hard time to focus, thus they forget what they suppose to do at the moment. They also lose track of date and time. It is helpful at the early stage to have communication device to help them remember a simple task.

One of the major problems of people living with Dementia or Alzheimer’s facing is undernourishment. They are undernourished because they skipped meals. They skipped meals not because they don’t want to eat but because they forget their mealtime. Not eating at the right time causes more problems and it makes the brain functions even poorly. Nourishment is very important and so eating at the right time.

You will also notice that they forget their proper hygiene. They don’t take a bath, brush their teeth and dress up. They forget that these things are necessary and should be done daily. A reminder will be helpful. It will serve as a spark of light in the darkness.

Another thing is that you should also remind them about the time of sleep. They need sleep to slow the disease. They need to be healthy as much as possible.

There are people in the early stage who lives alone and who can still manage to do their routine work. The only problem is they forgot so a communication device will be a lot of help.


One of Relink feature is “Routine Reminder”. See picture below.


Most likely it will be look like that. Relink is still under completion so expect some change. It might change base on the feedback we get. Make sure to follow us on Facebook to get the latest updates.

Routine helps people with A.D to cope with daily tasks like eating, bathing and other activities through a gentle reminder. Pictures and words are enough to help them remember.

To begin with, we would have:
- to eat
- to bath, dress up
- to sleep

Whatever you want us to add and whatever you find useful just say it. It will be a great help for the team to make it perfect. Feel free to leave us a comment below.

If your parents or one of them was stricken by this sickness seek help and have a meeting with your family members. Tell them about the situation and plan what you are going to do. If possible let the patient stay in your house so you can take care of him/her.

In the morning, you can take your love one to a walk. Walking can help the patient improve health, psychologically and physically. Don’t think of this as a duty, think of this as something you need to do for yourself as well. If walking can calm people with Alzheimer’s disease, it can calm your spirit as well.

Do not look at them with fear and loneliness because people with Alzheimer as their thinking and mental condition decline, their emotional contagion increases. They can copy what you feel so you should show them a happy face every time you look at them. You should also treat them with calmness so their feelings will be calm as well.

If you are working and can’t be with your love one, you can arrange a schedule with some of your family members so there is someone to look after him/her. It is not advisable to leave the patient alone since they have trouble in deciding what to do each day. It will cost you a lot of trouble. You might find your house burning if the patient decided to cook and forget all about it. Your patient might go for a walk and forgot how to go home and some other unpleasant scenarios. See to it that there is someone who is looking after him/her. If no one is available, you can hire someone but be sure that this someone cares for people like this. You can also put CCTV at every corner of your house so you can monitor them and you can be sure that your love one is taking care of and not mistreated.

Their time is short, show them you care even when you are not around by providing everything they need. Make sure that the patient is comfortable and happy because when they are lonely, their condition worsens. Help People withAlzheimer Fight Loneliness and show them you care.
