COGNITIVE COMPANION: ENHANCING ALZHEIMER’S CARE USING MACHINE LEARNING

Alzheimer’s disease significantly impacts patients and caregivers, necessitating innovative solutions for care management. This paper presents "Cognitive Companion," a mobile application designed to support Alzheimer's patients and their caregivers through technology. The app integrates memory assistance, daily task reminders, emergency contacts, and caregiver support. By leveraging Flutter for cross-platform compatibility and cloud-based data storage, the system enhances patient independence and caregiver efficiency. Preliminary results indicate improved adherence to routines and reduced caregiver stress. This study discusses the development, implementation, and potential impact of the application in Alzheimer’s care.
