How This Orientation Aid Supports Daily Living

This digital calendar clock is a vital assistive tool that supports NDIS goals by:

• Reducing Cognitive Load & Anxiety: For individuals with dementia, a brain injury, or cognitive impairments, the constant, clear display of time and date can significantly reduce confusion, repetitive questioning, and the anxiety that comes with disorientation.

• Supporting Individuals with Low Vision: The large, high-contrast digits are clearly legible from across a room, making it a practical tool for those with vision impairments to independently keep track of the day.

• Fostering Independence: By providing the foundational information of time and date, this aid empowers individuals to manage their own schedules and routines with greater confidence, reducing reliance on prompts from carers.

• Aiding in Daily Planning: The integrated temperature display (in °C) can assist with the daily living skill of choosing appropriate clothing for the day.
