The Caladenia Dementia Care App

Support for families and friends caring for someone with dementia

Caring for a loved one with dementia can be really hard. It can feel overwhelming, lonely, and confusing - especially when you’re trying to do it all on your own. That’s why we created the Caladenia Dementia Care App.

This free app is designed to help family, friends, and neighbours come together and provide the right help, at the right time.

​

What the App Does

The app helps you build a support crew - a private group of people who care about you or your loved one. It gives your crew simple tools and information to help with everyday tasks and emotional support.

You can use the app to:

• Ask for help with things like meals, transport, errands, or visits

• Share important updates and information

• Give your crew tips and guidance on how to help

• Stay organised and reduce stress

​

Why It’s Important

Many carers feel like they have to do everything themselves. But caring doesn’t have to be a one-person job. When support is shared and organised, life becomes easier—and safer—for both the person living with dementia and their main carer.

The Caladenia Dementia Care App makes it easy to involve others. It helps you get the help you need, and gives others a way to offer meaningful support.

​

How It Works

Getting started is quick and simple:

1. Start a Crew
   Download the app and create a private support crew. You can do this for yourself or for someone else.

2. Answer a Few Questions
   The app will guide you through a few simple prompts to help customise the app with information to help.

3. Explore Tips
   Read through easy-to-understand advice for carers and supporters.

4. Add Some Tasks
   List tasks that others can help with—like coming for a visit or dropping off a meal.

5. Invite Your People
   Add family, friends, neighbours or anyone who wants to help. They can choose tasks that suit them—no pressure.

6. Post a Welcome Message
   Let your crew know you’re glad they’re here. A short message can bring everyone together.

7. Track What’s Happening
   Everyone can see what’s been done and what’s still needed—so nothing falls through the cracks.

​​

And that’s it. You’re supported. Help is happening. You’re not alone.
