Reminiscence Therapy, Delivered Daily

Reminiscence therapy works. Research shows that engaging dementia patients with photos from their past can reduce agitation, improve mood, and create moments of genuine connection.

The problem? It takes time. Time most caregivers don't have.

What if the photos arrived automatically, every day, ready to spark a conversation?

The Science Behind Photo-Based Reminiscence

Reminiscence therapy is one of the few non-pharmacological interventions shown to consistently help dementia patients.

Reduces Agitation

Activates long-term memories that remain intact longer, calming anxiety

Improves Mood

Positive emotional recall through familiar faces and cherished moments

Strengthens Bonds

Creates shared moments of connection between caregivers and patients

Maintains Identity

Reinforces who the person was before dementia took hold

Studies from the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry and Alzheimer's & Dementia have documented these benefits across multiple care settings.

Traditional Reminiscence vs. Automated Delivery

The Old Way

  • Dig through boxes of photos
  • Try to remember which ones work best
  • Find time in an already-packed schedule
  • Hope you catch them during a good moment
  • Repeat tomorrow (if you remember)

The Gone But Remembered Way

  • Upload photos once
  • Set a daily delivery schedule
  • Photo arrives automatically with prompts
  • Use during routines, meals, or quiet moments
  • Consistent therapy with zero ongoing effort

Same therapeutic benefit. Zero daily preparation.

Every Photo Comes With Context

Our AI doesn't just deliver photos—it helps you use them. Context and conversation starters help caregivers guide meaningful interactions, especially staff who may not know the patient's history.

Example Delivery:

📷 Wedding day, 1968

"This appears to be from the late 1960s, likely a wedding celebration. The fashion and setting suggest a summer ceremony."

Conversation Starters:

  • • "Who are the people in this photo?"
  • • "Tell me about this day."
  • • "What was your wedding like?"

What Care Professionals Say

"We've tried to implement reminiscence therapy for years. The barrier was always staff time. Now photos arrive automatically, and our CNAs just... use them. Engagement is up, and we're documenting interventions we couldn't do before."

— Director of Memory Care, Texas

"My mom lights up when her photo arrives. Yesterday it was her and Dad at the beach in 1975. She talked about it for an hour. That's an hour she wasn't anxious or confused."

— Family Caregiver, Ohio

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this actually reminiscence therapy?

The photos and structured prompts support reminiscence therapy practice. We're a tool that makes implementation easier—the therapeutic relationship still happens between the caregiver and patient.

What if my loved one can't use a phone/tablet?

The photos can be delivered to the caregiver's device. You show them the photo and guide the conversation. Many families also print the daily photos.

How do we get photos if we don't have many?

Start with what you have—even 20-30 good photos can provide months of daily variety. We can also recommend photo scanning services if you have physical albums.

Can different family members upload photos?

Yes. Our Family Circle feature lets multiple people contribute to a shared photo library.

What about HIPAA compliance for facilities?

We take data security seriously and can provide a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) for covered entities. Contact us for details.

Every Photo Is a Chance to Connect

Dementia takes so much. Memories fade. Recognition slips away. The person you knew becomes harder to reach.

But sometimes—with the right photo, at the right moment—they come back. Even if just for a minute.

Give them more good days.
