Apps:

Ask Annie is a self-paced microlearning app (available on your phone or mobile tablet) that provides practical tips and strategies to better support people living with dementia.

Ask Annie App- Product Information.

Annie is a care worker and she guides learners through scenarios based on real-life experiences to strengthen their skills in delivering dementia support.
The modules and lessons are short and focused on providing carers with practical ways to address challenging situations.

Learners are given flexibility to decide what and when to learn based on their time and needs, as well as the knowledge gaps identified through interactive
quizzes. Search function helps to navigate through the application and find topics that learners want to explore. Ask Annie has been designed with the user in mind making learning a very engaging and intuitive experience.

Written in plain language and supported by the video content, this platform is suitable for people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

The first 3 modules on the App are free and include

  • The key ingredients for dementia care
  • Understanding dementia and person centred Care
  • Fundamentals of good communication.
To experience the benefits first hand – use your phone to go to the App Store or Google Play and download the App.
