Just knowing who someone is makes so much difference; I see my patients differently.

Hospital health care assistant

testimonial
“
This is such a simple but clever idea. It's a small amount of information that is quick and easy to read and on display so that staff will easily see it. And it’s so useful having it online so we can easily update it and the hospital can access it as well.
”

Care home manager

testimonial
“
I’m very impressed by this service and I believe that Mycarematters is the way to go for all, whether they have dementia or not
