Vera: Music for Dementia Care

Not a word about any charges. Until you have created an account, entered your preferences, and created a playlist. Then it requires payment. I call that deceptive.

This is a very helpful tool!

Amazing app and very easy to use!

We are a care home in Aus and using VeraPro during the cares has greatly benefited both our staff and residents!

Imagine driving down the highway for a long trip and every song that plays on the radio is an absolute banger, it reminds you of your wedding, your adolescence, your folks singing along in the lounge room as a kid. A sing out loud song that nails it every single time. This was my very first Vera experience when I tried it out for myself. It had me thinking about times and memories that had not come up for so long. It was so obvious why this works, the triggers of memories, getting the 🧠 working and thinking, but amazingly enjoying every moment of it. It was a no brainer to introduce this to family members who were declining. Thanks Vera team. Kudos on this game-changing technology.

Using this with my grandparents is amazing. Downloaded after seeing the segment on The Project and it’s been perfect.

Music has always been a big part of my grandma’s life, and something I’ve been lucky enough to share with her. As her dementia has progressed over the last few years, it’s become more difficult to communicate with her day-to-day or even find out what she wants to listen to. The playlists in this app managed to find songs she introduced me to when I was a kid (that I couldn’t even remember the names of) and even some that she hadn’t heard in decades. Genuinely amazing

Set it up in two minutes and was able to play music fir my grandma. She immediately started singing along. Happy days!

Someone recommended this to me recently since it launched and I have to say that after trying this on my grandma, I was genuinely impressed that the radio stations in this app were pretty accurate to her taste and preferences. I’ll be making a point of visiting and playing this for her every few days :) you got her dancing!
