Who is My Life TV for?
My Life TV is designed for people in the mid-to-late stages of dementia with moderate-to-severe symptoms, whether living at home or in a care setting.
All our content is dementia-centered - meeting the cognitive, emotional and physical needs of people living with dementia, including memory problems, reduced concentration, agitation, poor mobility and being socially withdrawn or disconnected.
Our programmes are designed for individual use and for group activities, supporting carers at home and staff in residential and day care settings to provide high-quality, person-centered dementia care.
