The Rippl way

Why we exist

Mission: We enable more good days for those living with dementia and their families.

Values

Who we are

We’re
fed up.

Today’s dementia care isn’t working. Too many families are struggling to find the support they need, and too many seniors are left without the care they deserve. We know it can be done better—so we’re doing it.

We’re
changemakers.

We’re pioneering a new, better care model that actually works for people living with dementia and their families. We use evidence-based care, technology, and human connection to deliver the support that people need—when and where they need it. And we’re proving it works.

We’re
in a hurry.

The need for high-quality dementia care has never been greater. The number of people living with dementia is growing at an unprecedented rate. Families need help now, and we refuse to wait.

We
start with yes.

We don’t let barriers stop us. When faced with a challenge, we figure it out—together. We’re problem-solvers, innovators, and doers who find a way to make things happen for the people who need us.

We care for those who care for others.

Great care starts with the people delivering it. We are obsessed with supporting our care team—because when they feel valued and empowered, patients and caregivers get the care they deserve.
