Assistive Tool Kit for Alzheimer’s Patient

Alzheimer’s disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that causes to develop dementia. The Alzheimer’s patients find it hard to remember recent events, reason and even to recognize people they know. As the disease advances, symptoms can include difficulty with language, disorientation including getting lost, mood swings, loss of motivation, lack of selfawareness and overall behaviour. The objective of this proposed paper is to develop an assistive tool for Alzheimer’s patients and their caretakers to provide support like health monitoring, assist to find lost items, provide reminder to take medicine and assist to monitor patient’s location. An evaluation study showed that the proposed system was effective and usable for the patients and their caretakers. The model is designed to make people suffering from Alzheimer’s as independent as possible.
