The free Brite Trace app will be ready to download this month. This new app will allow you to
stay organized and engage more meaningfully with your loved one who suffers from
Alzheimer’s or dementia. At Brite Trace, we’re dedicated to improving the emotional connection
between you as a family caregiver and your loved one. That’s why this app was created with you
in mind—to make caring for your loved one more accessible and personalized to their specific
needs. Let’s take you through some of the highlights of the app.
When you first download the Brite Trace app, you’ll walk through a quick registration process to
set up your loved one’s Patient Profile. Through a simple, six-step questionnaire, the app will
collect information about your loved one’s behaviors, moods, hobbies and interests, faith and
values, daily routines, and even allow you to select a profile picture for them. Please spend the
necessary time with this process because it will provide the foundation for the app’s usefulness
to you and your loved one.
Once the Patient Profile is ready, you’ll begin the Symptoms Check. Based on the symptoms you
select, the app generates a diagnosis meter at the top that describes the state of decline your loved
one may be in. This allows the app to understand your loved one’s experience with Alzheimer’s
or dementia more accurately and curate suggestions based on their symptoms.
From there, you’ll go through a Screening Check with your loved one. This is an interactive
activity you can do with them that measures their level of cognitive abilities. It consists of three
steps with follow-up questions for you to answer based on their responses. After you’ve
completed the activity, you’ll have the opportunity to set reminders for when you’d like to be
notified about updating any information in the app. That way, you can rely on the app to remind
you to check in and keep everything up to date.
Now that you’ve entered the important registration data, you can begin to let the work app for
you. You’ll have personalized tools and resources right at your fingertips to make caring for your
loved one easier and less stressful. You can record their mood at certain times of the day using
the Mood Tracker, log behaviors—both positive and negative—using the Behavior Report, and
implement auto-generated suggestions for improving their overall well-being.
You can also add more caregivers to the mix by sending digital invitations to family members or
other key people. However, we know your loved one’s care isn’t something that should be
handled by just anybody. That’s why you can select their permissions to filter what they’re
allowed to see and utilize in the app. If anyone else needs to help with caregiving, this will give
you the confidence that they have everything they need all in one place to care for your loved
one well.
We’re so excited to provide this powerful tool to you for free. By visiting the App Store on your
mobile device, you can download the Brite Trace app for free to get started today.
