Business / Provider Profile
Uukoo is a carefully designed digital application created to respectfully support a person living with dementia, their loved ones and their care support team.
It͛s rationale is informed by peer reviewed research that demonstrates conclusively that people living with dementia who remain socially included have a better quality of life.
Significantly, statistics show that people living with dementia who feel isolated experience greater levels of agitation, depression and aggression. This results in the over prescription of antipsychotic drugs as a first line of management.
In Australia alone, 6000 elderly Australians die every year as a result.
