Cognitive Aids & Memory Supports

Cognitive aids — clocks with large displays and day/date, simplified phones, memory notebooks, and task reminder systems — support independence for people with mild cognitive impairment or early dementia. Large-button phones reduce communication barriers; day-date clocks with clear am/pm display address common disorientation; automatic stove shut-offs reduce kitchen safety risk for people who forget they've left the stove on. These products are commonly recommended in memory care and dementia caregiver guidance. The guides here cover cognitive aids organized by the specific daily living challenge they address.
