Our Story

We’ve sat beside patients in the late afternoon — when the light changes and something in their face changes too. When the nurse calls for help because he’s asking to go home, and he’s already there. When the family stands in the hallway not knowing what to say or do.

Sundowning is one of the most predictable and most devastating daily events in dementia care. And yet, when caregivers — daughters, sons, spouses — go looking for help, what do they find? A list of individual products. Medical articles full of jargon. Suggestions to “try to maintain a routine” without any guidance on what that routine should look like.

We thought they deserved better than that.

What we built

VeloraCare was created to give family caregivers what clinical settings have known for years: structured evening routines, sensory interventions, and environmental cues work. They’re not magic — but they’re real, and they’re supported by evidence.

We packaged that knowledge into one kit. With a protocol. With every product chosen deliberately. With a 30-day guarantee so you have nothing to lose.

Because when you’re caring for someone you love, you deserve a system — not just hope.

Our promise

VeloraCare is not a medical device. We don’t treat dementia. But we do believe in the power of routine, sensory calm, and the human connection between a caregiver and their loved one. Every product in our kit is chosen to support that connection — even in the hardest hours of the day.

If the 5 O’Clock Protocol helps even a fraction of the 63 million family caregivers in America find one more peaceful evening, we’ll have done something worth doing.
