Woodstock Residential Care Home use Doll Therapy

Doll therapy helps some residents find great comfort

Some of the residents here at Woodstock Residential Care Home love nothing more than to have a doll to care for and cuddle. Particularly for our residents with Dementia, this kind of therapy can instil a sense of purpose and wonderful feelings of love.

Simply by having a small doll to ‘care for’, some of our ladies experience reduced anxiety, agitation and feeling of stress. Our ladies also enjoy recalling happy memories when looking after their dolls.
