Living at home with memory loss
If you’re becoming concerned that a parent or loved one is finding it increasingly difficult to manage on their own because of memory loss, it can be a big help to know just how they are coping at home from day to day.
Professional carers will tell you that the way somebody with memory problems behaves when you are with them may be some way from the true picture.
The surprising truth is that many people with memory problems, including those who have been officially diagnosed as having Alzheimer’s or some other form of dementia, can live in their own home and familiar environments with remarkable ability.
But of course you need to know for sure.
Just Checking
We designed the Just Checking system to give you as full a picture as possible of the hour by hour, day by day movements of a person with memory loss who is living alone at home. All without being intrusive or depriving them of their privacy.
It could make the difference between your loved one going into care and being able to stay living in their own home for as long as possible.
There is no surveillance from CCTV cameras or obtrusive equipment, just a single discrete sensor in the important rooms. Each time the person moves in a room or opens an outside door it is recorded and instantly sent to this website where you can view the results (once you have your unique password) at any time and wherever you are.
Peace of mind
On this site we’ll take you step by step through the benefits of the Just Checking system, so that you can decide if it’s something that’s right for your particular concerns.
It has already proved its effectiveness in thousands of cases managed by professional carers, and is currently being used by two thirds of local authorities across the UK. We would now like to make the system more available to individual families.
If you come to the conclusion that Just Checking could be useful, please check out the buying or renting options. We think you’ll be surprised how affordable peace of mind can be.
