There's more to a person than their care needs.

Help the people caring for someone you love understand what makes them who they are — from the little things they love to what a good day looks like.

A good day

Coffee with cream by the window, the crossword in pen, and Ella on the record player after lunch.

How it works

Three steps, at whatever pace suits you.

  1. 1

    Share the little things that make someone who they are.

    Short, friendly questions with examples to jog your memory. Tap to choose, type a few words, or tell a longer story.

  2. 2

    Build a personal profile that brings those details together.

    Your answers become a warm, readable profile — written in their voice, organised so anyone can find what they need.

  3. 3

    Share it securely with the people caring for them.

    Invite specific staff or a care team to view it. They can read it but not change it, and you can remove access at any time.

A look inside

Preserve the details that make someone uniquely themselves.

Music

“Put on Ella and I'll tell you about Saturday nights at the Pavilion.”

Mornings

“Coffee before conversation. Cream, no sugar.”

Good to know

“I hear best on my right side. Please don't call me ‘sweetie.’”

What matters

“Give me a job. I was never one to sit idle.”

Who it's for

Families

Put what you know in one place, instead of repeating it at every shift change. Fill it in a little at a time.

The person at the center

A profile in their own words, about their tastes, routines, and values. They can help write it, and it's theirs.

Care teams

A quick, readable introduction to each resident as a person, from someone who knows them well.

For care teams

Get to know a resident in a minute or two.

When a family shares a profile with you, the most useful details sit right at the top: how they like to be greeted, what to talk about, what helps, and what to avoid. The rest is there when you have time.
