Service Design 22: you+care
The care and stress experience is influenced by many different factors. The dementia disease of the loved one also develops very individually and is affected by many unexpected behavioral patterns. This is why it has become all the more important to utilize the individual resources and needs of the stressed caregiver and to build on those.
With access to digital tools and their benefits, you+care aims to develop individual support for caregivers of people with dementia.
There are already plenty of support services and programs out there, but they don't reach those who need them most. For this reason, you+care not only wants to have a connecting effect but wants to guide caregivers by addressing the individual resources and situations and providing support where it is needed most.
Student projects:
HUBTIC makes digital interfaces and services tangible and therefore more accessible.
It reduces the interaction with the tablet screen to a minimum without diminishing the complexity of the possibilities.
By simply placing tokens on the HUB, both the caregiver and the person with dementia can perform actions or call up information, which is important for everyday life.
The service AGING MAP is a browser based application made to inform the seniors about important topics in the third and fourth stage of their lives. It offers a place to store all important personal information in one place.
RESPOSE connects the close circle of a person with dementia regardless of place and time, distribute responsibility according to each caregiver's individual schedule and create certainty about their health condition.
SHARE TO CARE is an app that connects different dementia caregivers. The app enables the implementation of regular digital self-help groups. Our service transfers the rules of such support groups to an online environment and automatically draws attention to them during the conversation.
