What is the Tovertafel (magic table)?
The Tovertafel projector transforms any surface into an immersive, interactive game. This care tool supports the CNAs and broader care teams in providing person-centered care at any time of the day and helps to manage behavioral symptoms associated with dementia. With up to 40 games for dementia patients, there's something for everyone!

How the Tovertafel helps memory care teams
Person-centered dementia care: find the resident’s favorite activity, and manage behavioral symptoms associated with dementia (like sundowning syndrome) with one of the 40 Tovertafel games
Decrease workload: engage multiple residents at a time in a meaningful activity, with no material to prep or clean up
Developed as part of a doctoral research program, the games’ effects on residents have been (and continue to be!) studied & proven in a dozen master’s and PhDs.
The only assistive technology designed for and with people living with dementia. Each game has been extensively tested to ensure a positive effect on players’ moods and behavior

A glimpse into the magic of the Tovertafel
Meet the creator of the Tovertafel
The Tovertafel was created by Tover’s founder Hester Anderiesen Le Riche after her Ph.D. research showed that 90% of nursing home residents with dementia are affected by apathy, which negatively influences their physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being. Hester’s early work was the foundation for Tover’s mission: to create a more caring and inclusive world for people with cognitive challenges and provide care that is designed around memorable moments and quality of life.
