Connecting Your Family

 

Welcome to the world of RemindMeCare (ReMe)

You’ve either been invited to use ReMe by the care facility that is caring for your family member and you’ve already accepted and created a user name and password, or you’ve been directed to look at this page to better understand what ReMe can do for you. On this page we’ll explain how to learn to get the most out ReMe.

We know that it can be hard to be far away from a family member. And that it’s often difficult to keep in touch from a distance. Often it’s especially hard for kids to find common ground for conversation. And to be able to really have a view on the nature and calibre of the care being provided in the care facility is also not easy to assess. That’s where ReMe comes in; by providing you with the knowledge and tools you need to improve engagement, gain reassurance and stay on top of the care process.

What does ReMe do?

It will give you a means to participate in the care process, to monitor care activities, to communicate directly with your family member and to schedule activities. You’ll be able to assist build their My Story personal profile to ensure that their carers can better engage and that ReMe is available should they require admission to hospital.

 

Is it complicated?

If you’re familiar with this type of software then you will probably just be able to sail through learning it, using the ? hints top right on many of the pages.
However, if you’re new to using tablets you can watch the following overview video and there are as many Help videos as you need. ReMe is designed for 8-80 year olds, so whoever you are, wherever you are, you should be able quickly to start enjoying using ReMe.

 

What should I do next?

First steps, just have a look around.

Then, as a family carer, you can build your own My Story profile. That’s a good way to start. No one can see it other than those you show it to. You’ll learn how to upload your own content and to easily source content from the internet to build your personal albums. With this you’ll be able to run personal reminiscence sessions with your family member.

When you’re a dab hand, then you can start to put content into your family members My Story profile, whether family photos or discovered content that will engage them. Or perhaps build a music playlist for them that you know they will love, and which their carers can use.

There are calendars to schedule visits, a means to connect using messaging and skype and you can view reports.
