The aims of this project were to - Develop the FMN platform to make it more widely accessible, in particular by improving accessibility for people with sensory disabilities such as dys..., visual ... and by developing other language versions. - Introduce an interactive sharing function - Develop an assessment tool to determine the most appropriate level and type of activity with FMN, taking into account the communication skills of people with neuro-evolutive disorders. - To develop training modules and resources on the basic digital skills needed to use the platform, to learn how to implement specific reminiscence activities in medico-social institutions and at home, and to mobilise resource persons or " liaisons " for training and organising workshops. - Piloting, testing, evaluating and refining new productions and training resources in collaboration with our network of associated partners. - Identify and use tools to assess impact in the short, medium and long term. - Disseminate results widely and create a network of expertise.
There is currently no cure for Alzheimer's disease and related disorders, making it a health and social challenge for all countries with ageing populations. Because of the loss of reference points, these illnesses are distressing, and it is essential to take into account the psychological repercussions of the disease, as well as setting up activities to improve the patient's day-to-day life and their relationship with those around them (family and carers). Care and support must be centred on the person's needs and preferences. Reminiscence gives people the opportunity to share their stories and experiences, and helps them to remember who they are. This helps build self-confidence, enables social interaction and establishes valuable links between the past and the present. Traditionally, this has taken the form of a "memory box" used to collect photos and various objects. The current project builds on a previous Erasmus+ project, "Forget Me Not", which developed and tested an online platform serving as a digital memory box, as well as 5 training modules for support professionals.
