Familiar, much-loved music can offer profound benefits for the elderly and those living with dementia. The UK-designed ‘Simple Music Player‘ offers exceptional build and sound quality – and it’s so simple to use! Download hundreds of songs into the large memory bank. Simply lift the lid to play.
The ’Simple Music Player’ has been designed to be as easy as possible to operate for the end user; that is, the person with dementia. Setting up the player is undertaken by friends, family or carers, as a one time process. Extensive trialling has verified that the operation is highly intuitive and does not require any prior knowledge or memory to start and stop the player. The styling is also reminiscent of old radios and is instantly recognisable as something which plays music.
Its design is part of the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt Design Museum collection in New York, USA.
