Engagement Center
Our Engagement Center is specially designed to engage users who have dementia. The three easily-reached baskets can be filled with items related to favorite hobbies or household chores to encourage meaningful activity alone or with company.
Tall shelves can be filled with magazines or family photo albums that can be important touch points for residents. Flat panel doors discreetly conceal audio and video equipment or hobby materials that require supervision. Doors fasten securely with a magnetic lock. Two holes in the back panel allow for wire management.
Scaled to provide ample storage without overwhelming an average 300 s.f. resident room, the Engagement Center will be an attractive addition to your residents’ rooms and a valuable help in promoting independence and meaningful activity.
The easy-to-clean, water-resistant and durable laminate top and cabinet feature a rich wood grain finish. Hardwood legs ensure stability and long life for the piece. Your Engagement Centers will arrive fully assembled and ready for residents to enjoy.

• For a former carpenter or woodworking hobbyist, wooden blocks
