How MATCH works

MATCH is grounded in years of clinical research from the University of Melbourne and co-designed with aged care teams, registered music therapists, family carers, and people with living experience of dementia.

MATCH in Care Settings

Our dedicated app; MATCH-RAC (MATCH for Residential Aged Care) provides professional carers with the necessary training to integrate music interventions to their residents daily care plans.

MATCH at Home

Our specialised app; MATCH-HC (MATCH for Home Care) is designed to support families caring for a loved one at home. It provides you with access to training and resources to effectively use music to soothe your loved one throughout their day, and in moments of distress or agitation.

COMING SOON

MATCHplus

MATCHplus builds on the MATCH offering by integrating sensor-based AI to detect early physiological markers of agitation, enabling pre-emptive music interventions.

“We successfully trialed the first version of MATCH and believe future iterations of this technology will provide even greater benefits to support our residents living with dementia, improving their emotional wellbeing, and making their daily experiences more enjoyable. We're excited to see how the next version of MATCH will seamlessly integrate into our care approach, creating a more calming, person-centred environment for residents, their loved ones, and staff.”
Anna, Allied Health Manager, Southern Adelaide Local Health Network
“The idea of incorporating MATCH into our homes is exciting. MATCH will not only reduces agitation, but will bring a sense of calm and joy to our residents. This results in staff having more time to spend on other clinical matters.”
La Stacey Baramy, CEO, Ibis Care
‘MATCH is beneficial in my work with acute dementia episodes instead of reaching for the antipsychotic drugs.’
Kate, Registered Nurse, MONASH Health
“Mary was very agitated, so we sat down together and listened to the music recommended by MATCH, and I stroked her hand, and her anxious breathing settled down.”
Family Caregiver

Introducing MATCHplus

A wearable sensor that detects agitation and provides early intervention music to soothe distress.

MATCHplus builds on the MATCH offering by integrating sensor-based AI to detect early physiological markers of agitation, enabling pre-emptive music interventions.

This real-time, auto-adaptive approach improves symptom management, reduces medication reliance, and fosters a more enabling environment for people with dementia. The technology is applicable to all dementia types characterised by agitation and cognitive decline.

Currently in prototype at the University of Melbourne.
