Joyk Empathy Dolls make a perfect companion for older people living with dementia in care homes, at home, or in the hospital.
Doll therapy is widely recognised in the care sector and can help alleviate stress and anxiety, encouraging caring and nurturing instincts.
Marco is just one in a range of dolls – choose different styles and types from Emelie, Tom, Elias
- Pop a beating Empathy Heart inside your doll’s outfit so that the doll has a realistic feel – especially for anyone suffering from anxiety.
- Place a shallow cardboard box nearby with a couple of tea towels inside for the doll user to make into a little bed. Maybe sing the beginning of some nursery rhymes and encourage the person to sing along too.
- Pop a few drops of sensory oil onto a hanky or an Empathy Doll Scent Bag and tuck into a doll’s pocket or outfit to create a scent. Ask if the person can recognise the scent? Discuss where you might find something with that smell. Can use lavender if the person finds it difficult to sleep.
- Leave a soft hairbrush nearby – the act of brushing hair can be soothing for an older person and will keep hands busy too.
