Description

The MIND app (Make an Impact on Neurological Disorders) features art, music and dance activities to appeal to the visual, physical and auditory capacities of patients afflicted by neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, stroke, traumatic brain injury. This app features a virtual art gallery where users can observe well known masterpieces, such as Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa; create their own version of them and play matching game activities. Users can create their own music, watch dance and exercise videos, and enjoy music from different countries. The app is also designed to ease the relationship between Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, essential tremor, stroke, and traumatic brain injury patients and caregivers by providing topics of discussion activities that they can enjoy together. All the scientific content of this app has been generated and curated for GE Healthcare by Monica M. Kurtis, MD. Additional content for this site was developed with the assistance of Amy Trommer, David Leventhal and Dance for PD, Daniel C. Potts, MD and Angel Duncan, and we are appreciative of their efforts. The MIND app is available for iPad only.

    I just downloaded this today. Decided to build the bird house. It keeps knocking me out of the program, shuts down after moving one object. Very frustrating. Hope the rest of the app is not like that. Want to use it for my husband! As it is this will not work for him at all! Help!!!

    Keyboard doesn't sound. Art app is quirky, sometimes works sometimes doesn't. Art puzzle worked fine!
  • Great app, needs updating

    I've explored all the aspects of this app and it is great. However, when using the birdhouse activity, I am constantly kicked out. It seems like it could be potentially problematic when an patient with cognitive inflexibility is kicked out of the app. Please fix.
  • Great app!

    I'm a speech pathologist in an SNF and absolutely love using this app to encourage expressive language and participation in ST. It is always engaging and evokes series of memories among my residents, regardless of their backgrounds. Would love another app from the developer.
  • Could be 5 star

    Love this app, as does my mom who has dementia but it crashes all the time. Please fix then I could give it 5 stars. Also in the app should be a contact link.
  • Why does it shut down

    Would like the bug fixed that kicks the app out of service. Have to constantly reopen.
