Crafted by dementia experts, artists, researchers and care professionals, Zinnia videos are for people who struggle to process rapid images, follow a plot or tell fact from fiction.
Foster connection
Watch together to learn more about the person you care for. Friendly Greeting videos feature care professionals saying warm, positive messages to the viewer to increase engagement and reduce loneliness.
Promote self-care
Encourage a healthy self-care routine with Zinnia's Activities of Daily Living videos. Videos that inspire tasks such as eating, getting clean or winding down for sleep can help people transition from one activity to another with minimal anxiety.
Zinnia TV brings to me calm, mind body and spirit. I leave it playing in the background as I go about my day.

It’s really good for calming people down so they stop feeling lost. The entire dining hall goes from high stress to this wonderful moment of silence when Zinnia TV starts playing.

I know Zinnia TV works to keep people engaged. I can reliably put it on and run out of the room.
