What is the living environment of the institutionalized elderly like? Is it suitable for the disabled elderly?

Institutionalized nursing homes usually pay special attention to the design of the living environment and the configuration of facilities to meet the needs of elderly people with different health conditions, especially the disabled elderly. These homes have the following features:

Accessibility: In order to facilitate the mobility of the disabled elderly and wheelchair users, the integrated nursing homes will have barrier-free access, ramps, elevators, and large, unobstructed toilets and bathrooms.

Safety considerations: rooms may be equipped with non-slip floors, bedside emergency call systems, and safety handrails to ensure safety and security in the lives of the elderly.

Personalized care units: Depending on the specific conditions of the disabled elderly, single or multiple rooms may be provided and equipped with professional medical care beds, turning beds and other equipment to meet special care needs.

Rehabilitation space: there is a specialized rehabilitation training area, equipped with physiotherapy, occupational therapy and other professional equipment to help the disabled elderly with functional recovery training.

Comfort and humanized care: Considering that the disabled elderly are bedridden for a long period of time or their activities are limited, the interior of the rooms will focus on lighting, ventilation and temperature control to create a warm and comfortable atmosphere, while professional nursing staff will also provide psychological comfort and emotional support.

In summary, the design and operation of elderly care facilities under the medical-care integration model takes into full consideration the actual needs of the disabled elderly, and is committed to creating a good living environment that is conducive to both physical rehabilitation and quality of life.
