LeDor VaDor

Founded in 2007, LeDor VaDor is a foundation based in Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, Argentina working on elderly care, health.

Hogar LeDor VaDor, run by Fundación Nuevo Hogar y Centro de Ancianos para la Comunidad Judía, is a non-profit residential care home in Buenos Aires, Argentina, opened in 2007. It provides long-stay, temporary, rehabilitation and special-care residences for older adults, including people with cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's and other dementias, and palliative care for residents and families. Care is interdisciplinary and person-centred, with a focus on autonomy, fall prevention, elimination of physical restraints, occupational therapy and kinesiology. Places are reserved for older adults in social vulnerability, supported in part by resident contributions that fund a scholarship system. The foundation also runs Bait, a model of protected housing, and community programmes for people over 60 in the Jewish community, including workshops, cultural activities and intergenerational initiatives aimed at reducing ageism.
