Best Mobile phone facial recognition for Alzheimer’s mum​

Good morning
I was wondering if you have had any feedback on a seniors touch phone that has big buttons from any of your members. I have to replace my mum’s phone as it’s is 3G but she doesn’t need all the bells and whistles just be able to make a phone call or answer. Reviews that we have read for suitable phones haven’t been that good.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Kind Regards

Lynne

Type phone for seniors into google to see a range of available products but one I suggest may be useful is the

Nothing to do with mobile phones, but if people subscribe to SciTech Daily, an e-zine summarising in simple terms many scientific research developments, they will find out about the great deal of research going into Alzheimers disease and future possible remedies. Small comfort for present sufferers and their carers, perhaps but it shows that there is hope. Likewise research into cancer and its treatments.

Apart from health issues, it is a superb resource for children/teenagers interested in any aspect of science. It is a daily e-zine and it costs nothing. Sometime the internet is useful!

Does you Mum have Home Help. If so the Provider, should know how to get hold of a phone or any equipment that your Mum needs to stay at home.
