    Abstract

    Memory disorder impairs people's independent functioning in daily life and thus threatens their safe living at home. Living at home safely requires the diversification of in-home services and forms of assistance for those living with memory disorder. The aim of this paper is to describe life-based design process of the ongoing TuTunKo-project (2015-2017) and provide notions for the practical operational model based on gained experiences. The goal of the project is to design a platform for digital services that support the sense of security and quality of everyday life of the home-dwelling people living with memory disorder. In addition, the instruments will be developed to evaluate the sense of security and life management of those with the condition and their family members.
