11	11	If the person seems more open to dialog when listening to some calm or relaxing music, then Pepper can be parameterized to play the type of music selected whenever she needs to engage into some potentially conflictual dialog. This is to increase the chances of not hurting the PwD feelings.
12	12	Potentially conflictual dialogs can be reminded the person that they forgot to take medicine, or that a mother forgot to cook for her child. In both cases, the person is reminded that they failed to do something important. Therefore, the dialog has to be conducted taking this important fact into account. If the healthcare professional concludes that music can help in that way for a certain patient, then it is an extra tool to use in this case.

17		-Regarding cognition, Pepper can warn the healthcare professional if the cognitive status of a patient deteriorates.
18		-For instance, if the PwD is doing an activity following simple steps explained by Pepper, they can be unable to carry out some of the tasks they used to do easily. The healthcare professional may not notice this, especially if they visit the patient only once a week. However, if Pepper informs them that the patients are having difficulties with some previously easy tasks, then they can handle the situation and potentially adapt the use of Pepper, as well as obviously telling the person to consult a specialist earlier than expected.
