“RITA is absolutely amazing! I wish I had 5! We have one gentleman who usually stays in his room but has sat at the end of the corridor and is on film number 4. Honestly, I’m so grateful for it, it will definitely be one of the best things for people in care homes. The selection is amazing and it has activity ideas that also prompt staff”

“There was one lady who was very distressed for an awful amount of the time. She was Punjabi speaking & there was a very difficult language barrier between herself & the staff which seemingly would increase the lady’s distress & anxiety. Using RITA we found a Punjabi movie & the shift in the resident’s mood was drastic.”
