TIM AND TANNIS ROBERTS: Echos of Love - The Power of Preserving Memories & Safeguarding Stories with EchoBox Memory Vault

Love Conquers Alz

Navigating the emotional labyrinth of Alzheimer's care can be both heartbreaking and frustrating, especially when personalized care falls by the wayside. Our journey begins with a relatable exploration of these challenges—stories of care facilities that miss the mark on truly understanding their residents, turning beloved family members into mere room numbers. We wrap this poignant narrative with a lighthearted twist, sharing personal anecdotes about how life’s quirks and ailments can be surprisingly comedic.
Enter Tim and Tannis Roberts, the innovative duo behind EchoBox Memory Vault, who are reshaping person-centric healthcare with their groundbreaking tool. Neither were tech people, worked in healthcare, or had a business background. Yet both were moved to improve our care model by providing the comfort of a loved one's voice. EchoBox preserves cherished memories and stories, enriching family bonds and supporting those dealing with dementia and palliative care. Tim and Tannis share profound insights and personal stories that illustrate how capturing memories can provide lasting emotional benefits and a sense of belonging, transforming the caregiving experience.
