Yes, Susan. This was purchased for my 84 yr old mother to take to her church choir practices. She doesn't read music or hear as well as she used to, but she still loves to sing and is very active in her church choir and also a Senior Music Group my sister in law has at her church. So, Momma takes the cassette player and her 120 minute tapes that we also bought from Amazon as they are getting hard to find so when we find them, we buy several, and she comes home with her sheet music and listens to the playback and learns the songs. Hope this helps you in making a decision about this cassette recorder. We have been very pleased with the purchase Yes, Susan.

I am pretty sure it will remember as long as there is an individual user profile. Not sure how or when it will know to send the data to your device.

I am sorry my father who has dementia uses it at the nursing home. The staff turn is on for him and for him the timer is perfect as he uses it at night before bed. Sorry I was not helpful.

First, I would want to be sure that a digital photo frame wouldn't be stolen from my mom's room in the nursing home. I suggest putting her name on the front of the digital frame..in a way that her name could not be removed from it. I"d probably etch it in somehow and use a permanent marker over the etching. Just be sure that whatever you do is obvious and can't be removed. I'm sorry to hear that she will have to be in a nursing home; that's a hard decision for the family, but sometimes, it's the only decision you can make. I was looking into this frame this evening; it seems to me that it will take a photo media card, it will also use a usb flash drive; I found the following info. Best Buy's web site has a video showing what can be done with this frame. Here's the link: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8954946&st=digital+photo+frame&type=product&id=1216424110889 Here are the product features: Display your favorite digital photos on this 7" LCD screen that features built-in memory card slots for quick and easy connection to media cards.

This type of camera would require some form of a dvr to accept the signal. I would suggest you look into a wifi camera that has its own software where you could view from anywhere. You of course would need wifi at your mothers house though.

I am an RN and I bought this for my aging parents. From what I can determine, I tested it before I gave it to them it was accurate. I bought one for myself, another brand and it read the same so that is what I can tell you.

You have to program the number to associate with the button but then yes, that's exactly how it works. My mother found that the pictures were too small so I turned the card over and just wrote peoples first names - that seems to work well. Colors would also work just fine - but you might have to tape them onto the button area. FYI, I'm only using a few of the buttons - too many would probably confuse my mom. This phone made a HUGE difference for my mom - the only thing that it doesn't have is caller ID and voicemail.

Yes I found it very easy to use and I am 78 so hopefully your mother will cope too.

This was a gift to my Mother. I set it up(she is 92). I don't remember it having the ability to go that long between changes. Maybe an hour, don't think it can go any longer than that.

I use my VTech to monitor my 75 year old mother who's in capitated. I can hear her breath and her dog rolling around in the floor next to her bed at night. it might be your unit. Right now I can here the TV she's watching and also when she calls to help her, and when the phone rings I can here the phone which is in anther room from the monitor.

I don't know. I think my mom is still XP and there are some keys that don't work for her but it's still a lot better for her for seeing the letters.

It has 4 gb so I'm sure if it's charged up before you use it, it will do. I've left it on to record my mom's dementia talk so the doctor's could evaluate her decline.

I am not sure. It might. My mom is visually impaired so the main focus was audio assistance. I never tried to store the info.

Actually, jitterbug can do it for you, do you remeber the help line, or when they call you for daily checks, you can ask them. I added my mom's contacts, via the web after we made an account for her. You're oaying s lot, you might as well use some of the services you're oayjng for

No. this is a home monitoring camera. I would suggest something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0047ZXEUW/ if it is allowed by the laws in your state and approved by the nursing home.

Hello. I purchased this device for my daughter because she just started the nursing program. I asked her if she used the note option and she has not used it yet. However, she did say that she took a look at it and it was something that she would eventually use. I hope this helps.
