Grayson Digital Silver Easy to Read Alzheimer's Dementia Calendar Clock - G237A
Brand: Grayson Clocks
Our most popular clock by a country mile with thousands going out the door every year.
Often referred to as the Alzheimer's Clock or Dementia Clock.
You'll see these in use throughout the NHS in hospitals, also in care homes and private residences.
Quite a few Post Offices too as it goes.
Primarily for use by people who are finding it difficult to keep track of the days and months.
They are particularly useful in Assisted Living situations and for people living with Alzheimer's or Dementia.
The 'big deal' with this clock is Twemco's patented Perpetual Calendar technology that automates the long and short months and also leap years.
As anyone knows who has a relative who is losing track of the days, being well orientated within the
week is just as important as knowing where you are within the day. This clock provides a well built solution that you know can be relied upon with little to no intervention. Just make the adjustments at summer / winter time changes, change the battery every couple of years and everything else is taken care of.
The clock is has Dementia Design Accredited Product status, awarded by The University of Stirling in 2019.
The G239A has a large, easy to read 230mm diameter clock-face linked to a fully automatic calendar.
A single 'AA' battery, which should last you a couple of years or so depending on the brand, is supplied with the clock.
There's a high quality German movement at the heart of the clock that will provide you with an accuracy of about 1.5 sec/month at normal operating temperatures.
Clock operation is straightforward:
Time is adjusted via a wheel on the back of the movement situated behind a removable panel on the back of the clock.
The date is adjusted via sliders, also on the back. All the instructions are printed on the clock so you can never lose them..
