Imagine you’re 83 years old, living with dementia in a long-term care home. Lately, your caregivers keep asking you to wear a bracelet on your wrist 24/7. They say it’s for your safety, so they can locate you quickly when needed.

This becomes annoying, especially when you realize that it doesn’t have any functions that are useful to you.
