Product overview
Raz is a one-touch dialing phone designed for people living with dementia. While it offers the benefits of a smart phone, Raz maximizes accessibility with its streamlined design. The phone's single interface screen has only four main components: contacts' pictures and names, an emergency service call button, the time and battery status. To make a call, simply tap the desired contact's photo! In addition to voice calls, the RAZ Memory Cell Phone can receive video calls.
The Raz App enables caregivers to configure contacts and manage their loved one's phone remotely: limit calls, monitor battery & signal strength, track location and more.
Suitable for
Individuals living with mid-to-late stage dementia, as well as adults looking for a user-friendly cell phone to connect with loved ones.
Caregivers wanting to communicate easily with their loved ones and track their location if they get lost.
Navigating the array of phone options and tracking device technologies can be quite a challenge. This task becomes even more daunting when seeking a cell phone that provides a streamlined and simplified user experience. The Raz is versatile while remaining user-friendly, thanks to its limited user functionalities and remote managing capabilities for caregivers. It supports easy communication with family members. The Raz memory phone is a great product that supports connection and independence while also keeping safety in mind.

The RAZ phone has helped maintain constant communication with my father who has Alzheimer's disease. The ease with which he can recognize and make contact with his loved ones with a single click on the picture of his phone has greatly helped maintain communication between all of us, which he could not do with a conventional cell phone.
In addition, this phone provides security for the caregiver through its application possibilities, e.g.: control of incoming and outgoing calls, reduction of the possibility of fraud with the elderly and also GPS tracking in case of theft of the phone and especially during a period of wandering, etc.
The adaptation period for my father to understand the use of the device was relatively short and especially appreciated its ease of use.
So, I strongly recommend this device to all the families of a loved one who is living in a family environment or in an institution, in order to maintain and especially to facilitate the communication with his parents regardless of the place of residence.
