Centracare: An All-In-One Digital Journal For People With Dementia

CentraCare is an all-in-one digital journal for people with dementia and their caregivers. It allows primary and secondary caregivers to share personal information about the individual with dementia like hobbies, interests, triggers and soothing methods to help start conversations and avoid unpleasant situations. The application is a web app with authentication, encryption and mobile responsiveness to securely share information. It aims to conduct user studies over 4-8 months with select hospitals and clinics before partnering more broadly and potentially expanding to the US healthcare system.
