1	1	//The high-level goals and objectives we want to achieve.//
2	2
3		-== DO1: Help people with dementia remember their daily tasks.==
	3	+== OB01: Help delay memory loss for patient's daily tasks.==
4	4
5		-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.
	5	+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.

7		-== DO2: Help reinforce the connection between specific music and daily task with quizzes.==
	7	+== OB02: Update the todo list.==
8	8
	9	+Once the patient gets new examination results or something changes happens in cognition or health, they may want to change their daily routine. For example, if they are getting worse in memory, they may need more reminders for the daily task.
9	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.

11		-== DO3: Notify family members if PwD is unresponsive.==
	12	+== OB03: Help the patient to keep a healthy lifestyle through exercise.==
12	12
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.
	14	+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.
14	14
15		-== DO4: Play music during the day that they like.==
	16	+== OB04: Help the patient have some social contact with others.==
16	16
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.
18		-
19		-== DO5: Notify PwD if they forget to do their daily tasks.==
20		-
21		-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.
	18	+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.
