Enrichment and Dementia Care in a Torani Day Center
Our professional Brain Care Center team specializes in the treatment of individuals with dementia, Alzheimer’s, cognitive dysfunction and impaired memory.
Located within Beit Tovei Ha’ir in Central Jerusalem, this specialist dementia day care center offers a program of therapeutic activities. Participants can enjoy Torah classes in the special Beit Midrash, music therapy, arts & crafts and gardening, in a warm and supportive environment. They are served a delicious Mehadrin lunch, and they can also spend time in our multi-sensory Snoezelen Room.
Our therapists prepare a customized development plan to maximize each participant’s capabilities, with dignity and grace. We also offer home visits and a family advisory service.
The Snoezelen Room
Beit Tovei Ha’ir’s Snoezelen Room is designed to benefit elderly people with dementia who often become agitated or behave erratically. Spending time in this unique multi-sensory environment provides therapeutic stimulation, creating a balance between activity and relaxation, reducing stress, and arousing positive behavior.
Our Snoezelen Room provides multi-sensory stimulation with background music, lights, and aromatherapy and reflexology elements. Its interactive light projections react to visitors’ movements, and they can enjoy shared experiences like playing virtual ball games. Relaxing here can help to transform a visitor’s mood from feelings of sadness, pain or loneliness to hope, renewed energy and a positive mindset.
The room can also be booked for individual or group sessions of 20-30 minutes.
