Enhance communication
between residents and families
1. Gazette
The Famileo app
Loved ones download the app on their mobile or tablet, allowing them to easily share photos and messages. Every Sunday night, posts are compiled and formatted into a personalised newspaper: the gazette!
From digital to paper
Every Monday, the gazette is printed and ready for distribution. Residents receive a personally tailored newspaper filled with photos and messages from their loved ones.
Delivering smiles!
Positively impact your residents' lives instantaneously
Increase positive feelings
Families will be grateful for this convenient and adapted tool that serves to remind their loved one that they're thinking of them.
Residents feel more connected, loved, and recognised.
Care home staff will form deeper, more meaningful connections with residents and families through the sharing of special moments and daily life events.
Person-centered care
The gazette provides an intimate view into a resident's life. It's a great tool to connect more personally with residents, and can be easily adapted to use as a one-to-one activity or in a group setting (to share news and photos during tea time, for example). The photos (either old or new) and messages will provoke positive memories and feelings.
Accessible and simple to use
With more and more families becoming international, Famileo has worked hard to create a product that bridges the distance.
Family and friends are able to post a message and/or a photo in just a few clicks, and include their loved one in their lives no matter where they are in the world! The resident receives news and photos in a format that is adapted to them: a personalised newspaper that they can hold and look at daily to remind them that they are loved and cherished.
Share the great quality of
life provided in your home

4. Activity booklet
A free monthly activity booklet
Every month, our team has compiled a little booklet of several recreational activities to print out for your residents (15 to 20 pages).
A library of activities

Famileo TV box
Promote your work and share your news:
Very easy to use, the TV box allows to automatically broadcast content that has been published in Famileo onto a TV or computer, for staff, residents and visitors. You can also add the content of your choice (the video of your latest outing, your activities...).
Here's what professionals are saying about Famileo...
From users:
"It's a brilliant tool for me and my role. It's very helpful and it helps you to get to know your residents."
"When I have a resident who doesn't really engage and I get a reaction from them...
just getting the smiles and the laughs that you don't usually hear. That's my favorite part of Famileo."
