The Family Caregiver App is a mobile application for family caregivers, where all caregivers whether family, friends, or hired assistance can connect and stay updated on the well-being of a loved one. The primary objective of the application is to alleviate the pain points of the caregiving experience and enhance the quality of care. The application is meant to serve families caring for a loved one with a disorder or disease that affects cognitive function, such as Alzheimer's. Users can create a new care team or join an existing one. From any screen, users can track day-to-day health and well-being, including medications, symptoms, behavior and other cognitive, or physical functions of the care recipient. Other features include a calendar of the care recipient's schedule and caregiver shifts, health data displayed in various graphs to show changes over time, and a dated diary format to easily review activities and health status on a given day.
