Dementia is world-wide crisis growing to 78M by 2030, while the US is growing 30% (8M) in the same timeframe. 77% of 55+ want to age in place and that responsibility is falling on family members, the 'sandwich' generation to manage a complexity of care decisions including a caregiver shortage and turnover rate of an alarming 98.8% nationally.

Ella provides tailored approaches to help manage dementia care and improve continuity of care while providing a bridge if/when paid caregivers are needed. Ella can also provide outcome measures.

We are a B2B2C, SaaS solution and charge a per member per month fee to be on the Ella platform. As we include family caregivers, we will be a B2B2C and leverage channel partners to reach targeted families/consumers.
