My Day: Digital Dementia Toolkit

痴呆症是一种攻击大脑的疾病。它主要发生在人们变老的时候，但也可以从工作年龄开始。患有痴呆症的人通常有记忆问题或容易混淆。目前还没有治疗痴呆症的药物，而且随着时间的推移，情况会变得更糟。大多数痴呆症患者都尽可能地住在家里。与癌症或糖尿病等疾病不同，患有痴呆症的人没有得到特定的工具来帮助他们科普。My Day项目将为被诊断患有痴呆症的人提供资源，帮助他们日复一日地生活并计划未来。具体来说，我的一天工具包将提供有关痴呆症的信息，以帮助人们了解发生在他们身上的事情。该工具包还将提供实用的策略和数字化工具来管理他们的日常生活。该工具包将在手机或平板电脑上运行，并将提供如何使用它的培训。我的一天旨在帮助人们了解痴呆症以及随着时间的推移会发生什么。该工具包将帮助人们跟踪他们正在做的事情，并与值得信赖的家人或朋友分享。随着时间的推移收集信息也有助于发现变化的早期迹象。这意味着可以提供更多的帮助。

Dementia is a disease that attacks the brain. It mostly happens when people get older but can start when they are working age. People who develop dementia often have problems remembering things or get confused easily. There are currently no medicines to cure dementia and it gets worse over time. Most people with dementia live at home managing as best they can. Unlike illnesses such as cancer or diabetes, people who develop dementia are not given specific tools to help them cope. The My Day project will provide resources for people who are diagnosed with dementia to help them live day to day and plan for the future. Specifically, the My Day toolkit will provide information about dementia to help people understand what is happening to them. The toolkit will also provide practical strategies, and digital tools to manage their daily lives. The toolkit will run on a phone or tablet and training will be provided on how to use it. My Day is intended to help people learn about dementia and what to expect as time goes by. The toolkit will help people keep track of they are doing and share this with trusted family or friends. Collecting information over time can also help to spot early signs of change. This means more help can be put in place.
