As part of MorningStar
Memory Care at Englefield Green’s individualized,
resident-directed care, we are now pleased to be able to offer our residents
the user-friendly, interactive software called “It’s Never Too Late” ®
(iN2L). This unique, person-centered
technology makes it easy for anyone to use a computer, regardless of prior
experience or abilities, and is designed specifically for the continuing
entertainment and education of seniors.
Simply to use, iN2L provides
customized activities that are based on a person’s interest and background,
which are used to enhance cognitive function, socialization and quality of
life. Also a Wii-like functionality offers
interactive physical as well as cognitive activities. The personalized program
allows each resident to have his or hers own “page” on the system, and is setup
to display their photos, videos, stories, music, games
and even websites. The resident’s page
can even be customized remotely through a family portal to give family members
an opportunity to add personal updates, information and current pictures.
With over 3,000 application and
content items, the highly adaptable nature of the system makes it easy to
adjust activities and content to a resident’s unique abilities and
interests.
Along with an array of brain
exercises, educational and travel videos, interactive games, puzzles, word
games, history, news topics and trivia, the iN2L software also offers safe and
easy Internet access, email, and Skype.
