We didn't invent doors. We just decided that they matter.
True Doors ® decals help improve the lives of people with dementia.
Improve
True Doors ® decals are person centred care solutions to improve quality of life for elders with dementia, while also transforming cold institutional spaces into warm and familiar homelike environments.
Transform
Residents' identities are brought to the fore. Reminiscence and social interaction is stimulated. People recognise and find their own doors. Privacy and sense of safety increases. Facilities feel more like homes.
Create
Save your favourites to create our own catalogue from the largest collection of door decals in the world. Quality photos of actual doors, made-to-measure and applied on flat door surfaces.
Stories
From nursing staff, family members and people with dementia.
For some of our residents, it's easier to find their rooms now that they have a True Door. Residents help each other out, when someone has difficulties finding his/her own place. They feel safer, now that their room is more like an appartment, something they own.- Anne Oomes | Nurse at Stichting Elisabeth in Breda
We the residents of Nashwaak Villa are truly delighted with the new doors. Many friends and relatives have come to see the doors. They are beautiful. Beautiful! It feels like part of Holland has come to us.- Greta Spliman | Resident at Nashwaak Villa in New Brunswick, Canada
The hallway looks very nice and I like my door the best. I'm very positive about it!- Ariana | Resident at HVO Querido in Amsterdam
Fantastic!- Clarissa Garland | Member of staff at Mercy Health Mercy Health Bethlehem Home for the Aged in Victoria, Australia
The doors are so nice! Each one is so individual to the residents' lives and experiences. Each time we walk past them we talk about them. Certainly does bring a homely feeling.- Terera Brown | Step-daughter of a resident at Nashwaak Villa in New Brunswick, Canada
This is the kitchen door of where she lived for 40 years. Now it's easier for her to find her room.- W. Steiginga | A family member of a resident at Woonzorggroep Samen Noorderlicht in Hippolytushoef
