We’re proud to share that Te Tītoki Mataora (TTM) recently featured Elli Cares in a spotlight article titled “New App Offers Freedom and Security for Dementia Patients and Their Families.”
TTM, also known as The Consortium for Medical Device Technologies (CMDT), is a national initiative connecting Aotearoa New Zealand’s leading researchers, clinicians, and innovators to improve lives through health technologies.
Their recognition reinforces Elli Cares’ growing reputation as a research-informed tool that’s making a meaningful difference in dementia care.
What Makes Elli Cares Stand Out?
In the feature, Te Tītoki Mataora highlights how Elli Cares helps people living with dementia and cognitive impairment stay safer and more independent, while supporting family members and care partners every step of the way.
Key features include:
- Smart reminders to help users build stable daily routines
- Location safe zones for improved oversight while maintaining privacy
- AI-powered caregiver support offering personalised, 24/7 guidance
- Shared access to keep care teams informed and connected
Part of what makes Elli Cares unique lies in its co-designed development, a method of designing technology that values the lived experience of people living with dementia and their care partners.
Te Tītoki Mataora’s spotlight underscores the value of Elli Cares as a leading New Zealand health innovation that blends thoughtful design, safety, and real-world application in dementia support.
After winning the 2024 Future of Aging Awards, the stage is set for more individuals, families, and communities to experience the benefits of this cutting-edge dementia app.
