The simple, three-button design is easy for any family member to use. Each button has a symbol related to an activity. The “fire hydrant” symbolizes walk time, the “dog bone” represents feeding time and the “RX” symbol records the last time medication was administered. When you perform any one of these activities, simply hold the corresponding button down for three seconds and the current date and time is saved. To view stored information, just press the appropriate button once, and the display shows the last time the task was completed.
