Description: HeadHome tackles the problem of dementia wandering, by connecting dementia patients, caregivers and volunteers with the real-time HeadHome application. Wandering patients can either rely on the intuitive instructions on the dedicated HeadHome watch or their mobile application to find their way home or receive assistance from their caregivers and nearby volunteers to help them get home safely. This ensures the safety of dementia patients while reducing stress on their caregivers.
