Memesto
Memesto has been in Long Term care and Assisted living facilities and the response was better than what we could have hoped.
The Memesto is a device worn by dementia care recipients that delivers personalized messages and music recorded by caregivers, providing safe intervention that soothes agitation, reduces the need for pharmacologic drugs, and alleviates caregiver stress.
THE MEMESTO. A wearable device that improves quality of life for care recipients through timed, personalized messages and music
The Memesto™ is a life-changing device developed by Zach Gordon, RN, of Berrien Springs, Michigan, who came up with the idea while caring for patients who suffered from Alzheimer’s and related dementias.
The Memesto™ is a wearable that plays the care recipient’s favorite music and custom messages recorded by loved ones, a positive non-pharmacologic intervention that alleviates agitation, reinforces healthy behavior, and relieves caregiver stress.
The Memesto™ is a product of Edgewater NEXT, a wellness and innovation technology company in St. Joseph, MI. The prototype was engineered and manufactured by the award-winning team at Edgewater Automation in St. Joseph.
After trials in multiple care settings, such as skilled nursing homes, assisted living, and homes, the Memesto was shown to have a transformative impact on the quality of life of the care recipients. An app and wifi connectivity, along with other innovations to the device, are underway, and a clinical trial with a major research partner is planned for the coming year.
The team at our parent company, Edgewater NEXT, is working hard to get the next generation Memesto device out to dementia care recipients and their caregivers. We're testing the new device in a variety of settings and are collecting feedback from caregivers.
The new device will make it easy to send personalized messages and music to your loved one, whether they're at home or in a care facility. Visit our page often for exciting updates and we'll let you know when our device is on the market!
