Dementia Behavior Log

Someone told you to "keep a diary of when it happens". You were handed a paper form, or nothing at all, and now the care review is on Thursday and you are trying to remember three weeks from memory.

Dementia Behavior Log is that diary, in two taps, on your phone.

WHAT YOU RECORD
• What happened — agitation, wandering, refusal of care, calling out, repeated questions, withdrawal
• What came just before it — being asked to wash or dress, a different carer, visitors, noise, being told no, pain or discomfort, a change of routine
• What you tried, and whether it helped
• Where it happened, how long it lasted, how bad it was

WHAT IT SHOWS YOU
• A time-of-day chart — the late-afternoon pattern many carers describe, made visible from your own records rather than assumed
• Which triggers show up most often before which behaviours, counted from what you logged
• A day-by-day timeline you can scroll back through

WHAT YOU TAKE TO THE APPOINTMENT
• A single PDF for the GP, the memory clinic, the community nurse or a care review
• Or a CSV, if you would rather work through it yourself
• Records for more than one person, kept separately

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
• Everything stays on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no cloud, no sharing.
• Lock the app with your fingerprint or PIN
• Your records are never uploaded: no account, no cloud copy

WRITTEN IN CARER LANGUAGE The choices are worded the way you would say it — "was asked to do something (washing, dressing, medication)", "went along with what they believed" — not in clinical shorthand you would have to translate.

WHAT THIS APP IS NOT It is a record-keeping tool. It does not diagnose, assess or stage anyone. It does not tell you what to try, and it cannot tell you why something happened — patterns in your log are counts of what you recorded, not explanations. It is not a substitute for the professionals involved in your relative's care, and anything you notice here belongs in a conversation with them.
