French product newly being sold in the UK by NRS (assistive technology supplier) described as "The brain-child of a French surgeon whose mother had dementia, the MEM-X is now used as a second memory tool, or as part of a fall prevention package, instead of sticky notes or diary aids. A simple programming system, via a covered keypad, allows carers or family members to record up to 90 personal messages, each lasting for 10 seconds. The reassuring reminders are then played at the exact time and date stipulated, simply by an alert tone prompting users to press an oversized blue button to hear the message."
