Tips on how the funding can be used
- Make sure every unit at the nursing home gets digital therapy and companion animals.
- Use digital experiences and films via the Digital Experiences service (then with 470 tailored films for people with cognitive decline).
- Digitalize the life story with MinMemoria.
About 60 percent of Swedes are said to prefer dogs over cats, but at nursing homes digital cats are considerably more common — which is why it's important to be able to offer both options in person-centered care.
