The Therapeutic Benefits of Folding for Dementia Patients

At Encore at Avalon Park, we believe that even the simplest activities, like folding laundry, can have profound benefits for our residents with dementia. This familiar and repetitive task not only provides comfort but also boosts confidence and a sense of purpose. By engaging in folding activities, particularly with baby clothes, our residents connect with positive memories and experience a nurturing sense of accomplishment. We invite you to support this therapeutic activity by donating baby clothes to 13798 Cygnus Dr, Orlando, FL 32828, and help us continue enriching the lives of our residents.
