Interactive Projectors in Care: Evidence of Impact

Key Findings

The survey highlights a range of positive outcomes, particularly relevant to dementia care and wider care services:

• Increased socialisation and enjoyment among residents during group sessions.
• Greater movement and spontaneous physical activity, including reaching, stretching, and dancing.
• Improved wellbeing and emotional connection, with more smiles and moments of calm.
• Reminiscence opportunities that encouraged conversation and shared memories.
• Strong positive feedback from families and care teams.

What This Means for Care Providers

The findings suggest that interactive projection technology is more than just a novel activity – it has the potential to:

• Supports person-centred care with adaptable, inclusive activities.
• Reduces isolation by encouraging participation in shared sessions.
• Enhances physical and cognitive stimulation through enjoyable activity.
• Provide staff with an effective tool for delivering meaningful engagement.
• Can ease workload pressures with smoother activity planning.

These outcomes align with sector priorities for improving quality of life, wellbeing, and family involvement in care.

A Collaborative Approach
