What you need
What you need
- An iPhone for the calls, today.Where a resident has none, a staff member starts a conversation together with them. We help install the app. Today the calls ring in the A Story iPhone app, in a private beta.
- An agreed hour.The app rings then, and they answer and talk.
- One person on your side.For installation, introductions and support. A program can begin with one floor.
- The resident’s consent, before the first call.Agreed with them, together with who may read or contribute. If someone sets A Story up on a resident’s behalf, they make sure the resident understands and agrees. How that works for a resident who cannot decide alone, we go through on the demo.
- Pricing, quoted on the demo.For the program you describe. Relatives who read and add pay nothing.

Know the person behind the care.
A Story records personal stories. It is not a clinical assessment or treatment.
- Start with what they choose.A photograph, a recipe or a song can open a conversation. It is an invitation, never a test of what someone remembers.
- Let the family fill in the edges.Relatives recognise faces, remember names and bring their own accounts, each beside the resident’s words.
- A few lines before the next shift.What they did for a living, who they miss, the song that settles them.
What we can say today
What we can say today
- A story told twice is fine.
- Nothing appears until the storyteller says yes. Not a relative’s addition, not anything added on their behalf.
- The storyteller owns it, and can delete it all. Not the person who paid, and not the place that set it up.

- The resident talks, when they like.At an agreed hour, or together with a staff member.
- The family adds what they know.One link, no account. Photographs, names and their own versions of the story.
- The team reads what matters.Only the people the resident and family invite can read it.
