refurb...@googlegroups.com:
Seeking recommendations for
video phone for
dementia / Alzheimer's


...in order for the patient to stay in the highest possible high-touch with her far-flung family; her landline is audio-only, she's no longer able to work her computer, and she lost her ordinary mass-market cell phone so a replacement should be something purpose-designed for dementia / Alzheimer's, to maximize the likelihood that she'll be able to work it, and if possible, wearable so it'd be less likely to get lost.

Thanks for your help on this, and looking forward.

If anyone needs anything else, about the above or anything else, let me know.

If this email message leads to any useful or interesting results, I'd be interested in hearing about it.
