How a 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

Hester Le Riche - CEO and creator Tovertafel - about Tover & Tovertafel

Tovertafel - the power of Purposeful Play

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.

Endorsed by professionals

“When nurses have downtime, they'll start the Tovertafel, and then, they can get up and leave and the residents will continue playing. Families will join, and it ends up being a big group around the table. It’s the best thing!”
Engagement director
