Fernando’s Household

Fernando and Laura work in the technology sector in the Bay Area. They have one son in college. Fernando’s mother Maria lives in the home next door to Fernando and Laura. Maria raised three children in the neighborhood and worked as an educator at the local school district. She’s been independent most of her life. But in 2014, she suffered a concussion and skull fracture in a traffic accident. As she recovered, Laura and Fernando noticed she often appeared forgetful and confused. She was eventually diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Compounded with other medical issues, Laura and Fernando have become her primary caregivers.

    Fernando and Laura wore the Narrative Clip. Because they are not as directly involved in the caregiving, the Clip didn’t reveal much about their daily caregiving activities. Instead, the device prompted a discussion about how it could present some interesting insight to Fernando and Laura about the responsibilities of the caretakers they hired. It might help inform coordination and communication better, but also raises concerns about privacy.
