Importance Of Environment Design In Dementia Care
Apr 9, 2021
When it comes to catering the elders with dementia, design becomes an important aspect. Then the design is not only a statement of feel and beauty but also incorporates safety and security.
Every object that is picked for Epoch homes and is a part of the bigger picture has a thought process and relevance imbibed in it.
This blog by Abhishek Mohanty shares four basic principles on which Epoch homes revolve.
These 4 concepts are:
- reducing risk,
- neglecting monotony,
- reducing obstruction of vision, and
- enhancing simulation
i.e., the process of bringing a home-like feel by imitating the elderly's habitat.
This blog captures the daily leanings of an evidence-based, experience-based approach towards design in an elderly home.
