Families | Envita. Cada vida, una historia

Portada » Families

Imagine being able to care for your loved one by helping professional carers preserve their identity

That’s exactly what Envita is: a methodology that includes a digital solution and allows for a personalised and humanised care when both families and professionals collaborate.

Digitally capturing life stories in care environments builds a bridge between the person involved, their family, and the professional team, thus enhancing care and fostering closer connections. Knowing each person’s story provides a more personalized, human attention, focusing their interests on care giving.

By bringing their life projects to fruition and taking into account their daily preferences, we promote their well-being, showing that meeting their desires can be simple and essential for quality of life.

An opportunity to connect, especially for people with dementia.

Life stories allow us to see people beyond their diagnosis. Digitalizing these stories fosters connection and relationship-building through meaningful moments from their lives, valuing their experiences and stimulating their memory. This approach is particularly impactful for those with dementia, as it preserves their legacy and helps the person as well as their family and caregivers understand and honour their path in life. It strengthens emotional bonds, enhances care, and provides essential emotional support.

An experience to share together: the Lifebook

Life is like a book, filled with chapters, and older adults are true human libraries, brimming with stories to tell and share. With Envita, you will be able to digitize and preserve those precious moments through narratives, photos, music, and memories on a personal life timeline. The “Lifebook” feature allows us to create customized books (in digital or printed format) with a personalized cover, dedication, and unique chapters that preserve their stories in a significant and special way, celebrating their life in a truly unique form.

A place to honour life

At Envita, we partner with organizations to create a one-of-a-kind celebration of life. This heartfelt tribute highlights the importance of the life path and identity of those who have shared their story through their Life Book. It’s a moving celebration that honours their accomplishments and legacy with the respect and admiration they deserve.

“As I was asking her the questions, following the program's guide on the web app, her responses brought her back to being 8 years old again. I remember how she talked about jumping rope and the parties she used to attend. It was a gift to see her face light up as she recounted these stories, her memories of youth so vividly clear, perhaps even more so than recent years.”
Piedad MartínFamily Member and Participant of "Lifes with a History"

“It’s been a beautiful experience, because we’ve been able to find out parts of my grandmother’s life we never knew about. Professional carers get to know residents better, but both families and professional caregivers also build up a closer relationship as they interact with each other, which helps to forge a bond between them as well.”

“I used to think my life had been dead boring, but taking the time to reflect, to look back and review it, has allowed me to reconnect with many experiences and see them from a new perspective.”

“The project is really moving. I’ve been deeply touched because it has captured all our memories in a great summary of our whole family life. I’ve loved to have it all in writing.”

“It filled me with joy because I had my father’s memories and always dreamed of writing my own someday, but I didn’t know how to start. Finding a tool that made this process easier was such a delight.”
