Edgewater Development Helps Bring the Memesto Device to Reality

ST JOSEPH, NOVEMBER 14, 2017 — A new product has been brought to the market with the goal of providing improved care for a broad range of patients suffering from memory-loss. The Memesto is a portable device invented specifically to play music and custom messages, bringing comfort and helping to lower dependence on prescription drugs. Zach Gordon, a Registered Nurse/inventor from Berrien Springs, MI, came up with the idea while working with patients suffering from diseases associated with memory-loss such as Alzheimer’s and Dementia. Partnering with a group of investors to bring the concept to reality, a new company was formed, Edgewater Safety Systems located in Saint Joseph, MI. The product (now officially named the Memesto) was prototyped and will be ultimately mass produced by a local group of world-class engineers at Edgewater Development, also located in Saint Joseph. The Memesto is a small, portable device that can play music and messages. After being tested in multiple nursing homes, it has been found to be effective in calming patients and reducing the amount of medication that would have otherwise needed to be used.

Features:

  • Durable design that is easy to wipe clean
  • Single button on the front to instantly play a message on demand
  • Internal Speaker with clear audio quality
  • Display on rear to allow caregiver control
  • microSD card slot to allow easy music and messages access

“Anything that can decrease possibly dangerous drugs is a major step in the right direction!”
– Daniel L. Hayward MD, Investor and Health Advisor, Edgewater Safety Systems LLC, Internal Medicine, Lakeland Regional Health

The Memesto is now available on-line for pre-order with shipments expected to start in January 2018.
