My grandfather’s battle with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease profoundly affected both his independence and my grandmother’s role as his carer. In his later years, she was unable to leave the house without additional support, significantly limiting her own freedom. This experience has inspired me to design an assistive device that enables simple one-way communication, remote voice prompts, and alerts, proposed to increase safety, reassurance, and independence for both patient and carer.To help develop my design, I am seeking advice/support in coding, software development and electronics. Additionally, suggestions from anyone familiar with hospital, and residential care environments would be appreciated.
