The COGS Therapy App provides person-centred cognitive stimulation therapy (CST) to those living with all stages of dementia.

To learn more about being a COGS Therapy facilitator please visit the COGSTherapy website.

One of the unique features of the COGS app is its personalised approach to CST. The app uses a person-centred approach, where each user’s cognitive abilities and preferences are taken into account when selecting exercises. The app is built on the research based methods of Cognitive Stimulation therapy and follows the linear process familiar to all those that facilitate CST.

COGS’ exercises are based on the principles of CST, which aims to engage individuals in meaningful activities that stimulate their cognitive function. The exercises are designed to be fun and engaging, with activities ranging from word games and puzzles to music therapy and reminiscence activities. The app also includes a feature that allows users to rate their enjoyment before and after each session.

One of the benefits of using the app is that it can be used in the comfort of the user’s home, eliminating the need for regular visits to a therapist, or memory service. The app’s accessibility and convenience make it an excellent tool for individuals who may have mobility or transportation issues. Additionally, the app’s user-friendly interface ensures that individuals with dementia can use it as a group or independently, which can enhance their feelings of independence and self-worth.

Cognitive Stimulation Therapy and Dementia

Dementia is a neurological disorder that affects millions of people worldwide, and as the population ages, the number of individuals affected by the disease continues to rise.

Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) is a non-pharmacological intervention that has been shown to improve cognitive function in individuals with dementia. The COGS app is specifically for people living with dementia and offers cognitive stimulation exercises in a convenient and user-friendly format. The app also has the ability to be used by facilitators to run group CST using a zoom interface, or by those affected by dementia independently.
