MomBoard: E-ink display for a parent with amnesia

a commercial product along the same lines is KOMP https://komp.family/en/. We had it to communicate with our elderly grandparents until they died. Its a bit like a senior accessible social network feed for the family, including its dynamics, because the app shows what is being shown to everybody else of the family. In that regard it's a disadvantage you have some of the same dynamics going on. You dont only communicate to the grandparents, but also to the (extended) family.

I don't know if it's because we are conditioned by our interaction with TV and mobiles, but active LCD screens feel like they are screaming for our attention and an always on display will mostly be a distraction.

E-ink displays don't have this, they just blend in.
