Dementia is not a single ailment but rather a comprehensive term used to describe a spectrum of symptoms that individuals may encounter when dealing with various conditions, including Alzheimer's disease. These dementia symptoms trigger a decline in cognitive abilities substantial enough to impede daily functioning and self-sufficiency, impacting behavior, emotions, and interpersonal relationships. The Person-Centered Care (PEAR) system serves as an invaluable management tool, aiding caregivers in fulfilling their responsibilities more effectively by offering features that enhance patient care. Additionally, our application acts as an efficient communication platform, connecting various stakeholders, including supervisors, guardians, administrators, physicians, and game therapists. This project has a legacy passed down from previous batches and will be continued by future teams, emphasizing the importance of codebase maintenance and documentation. Therefore, the main goal of a front-end mobile application developer is to enhance and standardize the features of the recently transformed React Native application, which was originally in Native Android. This includes improving the user interface to provide a more user-friendly experience. Additionally, comprehensive documentation is being created throughout the development journey to ensure that upcoming developers can readily grasp the codebase and smoothly carry the project forward to its conclusion.
