Howz is delighted to announce its involvement in Minder Digitally Enabled Care for People with Dementia (MinderCare), a new programme designed to help people with dementia live independently. Led by the UK Dementia Research Institute in partnership with Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, MinderCare is a LifeArc-funded study that tracks daily routines and gathers critical insights to enhance wellbeing.

A new study published in The Lancet Healthy Longevity has highlighted the significant benefits of maintaining familiar daily routines for people with dementia.

At Howz, we’ve been championing this approach since 2016. By tracking daily routines through intelligent and discreet monitoring, our service provides valuable insights into the wellbeing of people with dementia. Read all about it here.

“Technology provides flexibility, choice and is a great way to support not replace direct care and can be a gradual and safe way to introduce the idea of care services to possibly resistant customers.”

‘Anything that can be done to lessen the burden and requirements on individuals to have to interact in a formal sense with the technology and the less intrusive on their everyday life this is, the more likely there will be a positive and cooperative relationship between technology and care’
