For the Family
“We recently had a family BBQ and my Mum was able to ‘join us’ for a couple of hours. She chatted to the kids by video call from her Amba. It was as if she was here with the family, she loved it.” – Mr A, Yorkshire (Age 60)
As a family member with an older relative living independently, particularly if they are living with dementia, you need to know that they are safe, well and coping alone. However, contact can be limited because
- More often than not, this age group can’t, or won’t, use personal computers, so communication between relatives is often reduced to telephone calls
- Personal visits can be difficult because of distance and the constraints of modern living
- Families sometimes worry that relatives living alone who have dementia can’t easily cope with everyday life and are aware that they may feel isolated and very often lonely
The Amba system keeps families connected to the User’s Amba, via PC’s, laptops or apps on their tablets or smartphones.
- Ambas system allows rapid communication and organisation of the User from your laptop, tablet or smartphone
- Having one shared calendar interface allows members to work more closely with the User and their carers, if they have them
- Amba will automatically alert selected members, within seconds, if the User makes any new appointments or if any calendar event is missed
- Video calling, photo and message sharing, brings an additional dimension to communication with your loved one
- Video calling allows visual ‘health checks’ when you can’t visit
- Instant photo sharing allows you to include your loved one in current family events
- Ambas messaging allows quick contact with your loved one when you don’t have time for a long call
- Younger generations normally communicate by text, photo sharing and video calling. Amba allows them to communicate this way with their older relatives
- The HELP button instantly alerts Carers and selected Members, should the User need assistance in an emergency. Remote viewing can also be activated when HELP is triggered
- Amba can help the User remain living in their home longer. With residential care being costly Amba could save you considerable money over time
- Amba is always on; reassurance that you are always in touch with your loved one
Amba helps families keep in touch.
