Good morning, Looking for recomendations on where to purchase a silicon life like baby doll for some of our residents. A nurse brought her doll in to show the residents and the reaction from a couple of ladies was amazing, the baby doll was weighted to a realistic weight for a baby. I have done doll therapy (Child representaion therapy) before at a previous employment and it was successful but they looked like dolls so this time I really would like a doll that looks real. Thanks Donna
Hi Andrea I do not know of a course that certifies you in child representative therapy but this article could help you https://www.goldencarers.com/doll-therapy-and-dementia/4319/ I am not sure why you want to know this but this article is very good
Golden Carers has made creating our monthly rosters so much easier with fantastic ideas, games and quizzes to keep my Day Club members entertained and the brain ticking over. Thank you, the membership fee even for our small volunteer group is money well spent. :)
