¿Con quién hablo hoy?
¿Con quién hablo hoy?
Talking every day is also caring for the mind.
ANA already calls every day. Very soon, she will also offer small moments of play, memories and good spirits within the conversation. No devices. No apps. On the same phone as always.
Included in the service. No price increase.
Loneliness affects health and memory. ANA fights loneliness every day.
That's why we haven't built a new programme. We've made the daily conversation go a little further.
A few minutes. A memory. A saying. A laugh. And the feeling that someone truly wants to listen.
No tests. No exam questions. It grows out of the conversation itself.
ANA plays with the ingredients.
“For Sunday's roast, what do we need?”
ANA asks her to tell the story.
“What were the summer fairs like when you were 10?”
ANA starts one and lets him finish it.
“The early bird...”
ANA remembers and picks it up again.
“Did your granddaughter come to visit in the end?”
Everyone plays their own way. A fisherwoman from Huelva and a retired teacher from Lyon don't talk about the same things. The topics come from their life, their land and their language.
The moment adapts to the person. Never the other way round.
The mind doesn't go alone. Mood matters just as much.
ANA's games, memories and tone have been reviewed in collaboration with Adriana Linde Martín, clinical psychologist, with a master's degree in Social Gerontology and a mentor at SECOT.
The suggestions for good spirits are based on “Vitamins for the spirit” (Vitaminas de lo anímico), an exercise she created and adapted.
Her eye is in every detail: when to suggest and when simply to keep company, how never to correct, how to speak adult to adult.
ANA keeps in mind five things that help people feel good. It's not a checklist. It's a map for conversation.
Making the bed, tidying up, ironing or going shopping all count. “Well, you've had a good bit of exercise today.”
Cooking, sewing, knitting, drawing, colouring, writing. Telling a memory is creating too.
A quiet walk, watering the plants, sitting in the sun, eating something they love, dressing up a little.
The neighbour, a friend, the senior centre, doing something with someone else.
Reading, the radio, a workshop, something new that interests them.
First ANA discovers what the person already does, and values it: “What you do counts twice”. Only when she knows them well, and gently, does she invite them to try something new.
This matters as much as everything above.
If the person asks about their memory or health, ANA kindly says that's not something she can assess, that she's there to keep them company. And they carry on chatting.
Every day you receive a report by message and by email, and you also have it on the dashboard. There you see what matters: whether they chatted, whether they enjoyed it, what they talked about.
Never grades. Never right or wrong answers. Never comparisons.
So that nothing important goes unnoticed.
CuidadIA informs, it doesn't intervene. Decisions are yours to make, together with your loved one, with all the information in hand.
If over several days in a row ANA notices that the person talks less about their plans, keeps repeating complaints or loses interest in their usual things, we tell you in the report as a highlight.
Only facts: what they said or did in their calls. No labels. No scores. No diagnoses.
And every conversation with ANA is also a breather for whoever is caring.
Many people who live alone never hear about the workshops, walks and activities their local council organises.
When a local council works with CuidadIA and shares its events calendar, ANA can mention those activities in the conversation, if they match each person's interests: “There's a cooking workshop at the community centre on Thursday, fancy it?”
She never insists. The idea is to encourage getting out of the house, not staying glued to the phone.
If your council doesn't work with us yet, ANA keeps them company just the same, every day.
Many associations already run in-person workshops once or twice a week. The rest of the week, the person is at home.
ANA covers those days with conversation, memories and light play. It complements the workshop. It doesn't replace it.
ANA also keeps company with people living with mild cognitive impairment, and with their families.
We keep just enough for the conversation to flow from one day to the next. Nothing more.
Neither the audio nor the transcript. Same as always.
Their hometown, their hobbies, what they said yesterday. To pick it up again so every chat feels continuous. And whether they enjoyed the moment, so she never repeats or insists.
No right answers, no mistakes, no scores. If the data doesn't exist, no one can turn it into an assessment.
What families ask us most.
No. Moments for the mind is included in the service, with no price change.
No. It's always optional. If the person doesn't feel like it, ANA just chats.
We don't promise that. ANA offers company and daily conversation. Loneliness affects health, and that is what ANA fights.
No. ANA keeps company, she doesn't assess. We are not doctors and we don't assess anyone's memory.
If over several days in a row ANA notices signs that their mood has dropped, we tell you in the daily report, with the concrete facts. We give no medical advice or recommendations. You decide.
ANA speaks more than 40 languages. Sayings, festivities and food are adapted to each culture, not translated.
Only if your local council works with CuidadIA and shares its calendar. It is not available in every town today.
One call a day. A real conversation. A moment for the mind and the spirit.
Moments for the mind is rolling out in stages to people who already receive ANA's calls. If you'd like us to let you know, write to us.
In the meantime, you can meet ANA just as she calls today.
