Summaries help caregivers recall recent details and prepare for conversations with family and healthcare providers.
Care trends that matter
See patterns in mood, sleep, behaviors, and symptoms over time. Small changes can be easy to miss day to day, but recognizing trends can help you make more informed caregiving decisions and have more meaningful conversations with family members and healthcare providers.
Spot patterns.
Tracking trends over time helps caregivers notice small changes early and communicate them more clearly.
Appointment Management Made Easy.
Appointment tracking keeps each care recipient’s schedule separate and confidential, so nothing falls through the cracks.
By tapping “add,” you can schedule a one-off or recurring visit, therapy session, or check-up with all the details. Simply type something like “Dentist, next Friday at two,” and we will add it to the timeline for you. You can also ask, “When is my next appointment?”

Why Does Someone With Dementia Get Angry or Agitated?
Learn why someone with dementia may become angry or agitated, what might be causing it, practical strategies caregivers can use in the moment, and when to contact a healthcare professional.
7 min readBehaviorsCommunicationDaily care
Quick answer
Anger or agitation in dementia is usually a response to something the person cannot easily express or manage — such as pain, fear, confusion, discomfort, overstimulation, or difficulty communicating. Staying calm, looking for triggers, reducing stimulation, reassuring the person, and redirecting attention can often help. Sudden or severe changes should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
