26 -== OB01: Help delay memory loss for patient's daily tasks.==
27 27  
28 -As people with dementia sometimes forget to do their daily tasks it is really important to have something to remind them of those activities. Not taking their medicine, eating well, or using the bathroom could sound like small things, but for elderly people, these things are becoming harder and harder to remember. Thus keeping a good daily routine helps the patient delay memory loss. Writing something on a screen is not that effective for notifying somebody about something. For elderly people and people with dementia, clear, easily audible commands, and music is very important.

32 -Many studies show that people who are physically active are less likely to experience a decline in their mental function. Thus a simple daily exercise is helpful to lower the risk of deteriorating dementia.
7 +== DO2: Help reinforce the connection between specific music and daily task with quizzes.==
33 33  
34 -== OB03: Help the patient keep some social contacts.==
9 +It is known that activities performed while listening to a specific sound or music are more easily recalled. The quiz focuses on that aspect and reinforces the connection between sound and action.
35 35  
36 -Interacting with others can help dementia patients. Researches show that even 1 hour of social interaction per week can help reduce agitation level and improve life quality. This objective aims to help PwD through regular social activities.
11 +== DO3: Notify family members if PwD is unresponsive.==
37 37  
38 -== OB04: Help reinforce the connection between specific music and daily task with quizzes.==
13 +Being able to tell if an elderly person is unwell really fast is very important information that could save the life of that person. That applies more to people battling dementia as they might do more dangerous things (leaving on the stove, wondering outside the house) due to their reduced mental abilities.

15 +== DO4: Play music during the day that they like.==
41 41  
42 -== OB05: Keep the caretakers updated with the patient's condition==
17 +Almost everybody loves listening to music. When used correctly it can reduce stress, help keep focused and entertaining at the same time. Regardless of age, these effects are really important for the well-being of a person.

1 -An objective is a kind of state ("participation in an activity can be viewed as a kind of state"). OB02/06/07 does not seem to be an objective, they are more like a function.
