Be a part of Memocate’s journey

Towards dignified and respectful caregiving

We want everyone to be heard, seen and understood, even when words disappear and memories fade.

A dream of human encounters

Inspired by her brief encounter with a person with dementia while working at an elderly care home, Professor Camilla Lindholm embarked on a lifelong journey of linguistics and dementia research to promote better ways of interaction and to improve the quality of caregiving for people with dementia.

Her widely acclaimed research and the vision for a better sense of well-being in dementia caregiving resounded deeply with many and among them is Heikki Hauskaviita, a budding entrepreneur, passionate about societal impact and meaningful connections with people. Striking a chord in their mission for quality healthcare, they gathered a team of experts to form Memocate in May 2017.

Research-driven education and resources

We transform Camilla’s extensive research into practical and easy-to-understand information that are accessible through e-learning courses and blended learning workshops by trained professionals.

Our course content includes video lectures by field specialists, comprehensive and proven theory, visual illustration of real-life scenarios and key insights to boost deeper understanding of the asymmetrical interaction between people with dementia and caregivers.

At Memocate, we believe that interaction is the key to better dementia care.
