The short answer

Memory care software addresses the specific workflows of dementia care: wandering/exit-seeking alerts that reach every staff touchpoint, IDDSI-aligned texture-modified diets with visual tray labels, engagement-scored activities that show quality of participation (not just attendance), and family-friendly activity calendars. Built for 10-16 bed memory care units and dedicated memory care homes.

  • Exit-seeking/aggression codes on resident list, tray labels, AND activity views
  • Full IDDSI texture levels (0-7) and fluid thickness (0-4) with filtered tray labels
  • 1-3 engagement scoring at activities with 30-day trend graphs
  • Family-shareable calendars, weight alerts for dysphagia residents

Most memory care units are running within a week. The base setup (facility structure, staff, residents with risk codes and texture levels) takes the most time; modules are added as needed. We help move data from spreadsheets during onboarding.

What the platform includes

Four modules. The memory care workflow uses Diet + Activity + Base most heavily.

Wandering & Risk Alerts

Exit-seeking and aggression warning codes set once on the resident profile. Automatically surface on resident list, tray labels, and activity views — every staff member sees them.

IDDSI Texture Diets

Full IDDSI levels (texture 0-7, fluids 0-4). Print tray labels filtered by texture level. Meal intake logging with percent-consumed + NPO/Refused statuses per dining room.

Engagement-Scored Activities

Participation logging with 1-3 engagement scoring (not just attendance). 30-day trend graphs flag engagement drops early. Family-shareable calendar views.

Weight & Nutrition Monitoring

Configurable weight-alert thresholds (percentage change, missing entries). Alerts on dashboard and in reports. Catches weight loss early in dysphagia residents.

How it works

Three steps from resident setup to daily memory care operations.

01

Set up residents with risk codes

Create profiles with wandering/exit-seeking (Yellow) and aggression (Purple) codes. Add dysphagia diagnosis, texture level, and fluid thickness. These propagate to tray labels, activity views, and reports automatically.

  • Warning codes propagate
  • IDDSI texture + fluids
  • Dysphagia flagging
02

Print tray labels by texture run

Kitchen prints only the texture level they're running (e.g., all pureed). Each label shows resident name, room, texture, fluid level, and warning codes. Change a diet profile — labels regenerate on next print.

  • Filter by texture level
  • Warning codes on labels
  • Auto-regenerate on change
03

Run activities and track engagement trends

Schedule memory-care activities with repeating templates. Staff log participation + engagement score (1-3). Review 30-day trend graphs to spot declines early. Share calendar with families.

  • 1-3 engagement scoring
  • 30-day trend graphs
  • Family calendar share

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from memory care directors and administrators.

What is memory care software for small facilities?

Memory care software addresses the specific workflows of dementia care: wandering/exit-seeking alerts that reach every staff touchpoint, IDDSI-aligned texture-modified diets with visual tray labels, engagement-scored activities that show quality of participation (not just attendance), and family-friendly activity calendars. Built for 10-16 bed memory care units and dedicated memory care homes.

How do wandering/exit-seeking alerts work?

Warning codes are set on the resident profile (Yellow for Exit Seeking, Purple for Aggressive behaviors). These codes automatically surface on: the resident list (color-coded badges), printed tray labels (so dietary staff see them at the tray line), and activity views (so activity staff see them at programming). One entry, three touchpoints — no separate alert system needed.

Can it handle texture-modified diets (pureed, minced, etc.)?

Yes. The Diet Module supports full IDDSI framework: texture levels (Regular, Easy to Chew, Soft & Bite-Sized, Minced & Moist, Pureed) and fluid thickness (Slightly Thick, Moderately Thick, Extremely Thick). Tray labels and tent cards print the resident's exact texture and fluid level. Filter labels by texture level for the kitchen — only pureed trays print for the pureed run.

How does engagement scoring help with dementia care?

Beyond Present/Absent, staff score each resident's engagement 1-3 (low to high) at every activity. The 30-day engagement trend graph shows participation quality over time — not just "did they come." A drop from 3 to 1 flags a change in condition early. Reports export for care plan reviews and family conferences.

Can families see the activity calendar?

Yes. Day, week, and month calendar views are shareable. Families can see what activities are scheduled and when. This reduces "what did Mom do today?" calls and builds trust in the programming.

What about weight monitoring for residents with dysphagia?

Weight alerts are configurable per facility: set thresholds for percentage change over a date range, or flag residents missing a recent weight entry. Alerts appear on the dashboard and in Diet Module reports. This catches weight loss early in residents on texture-modified diets who are at highest risk.
