Aged Care Refurbishment: Meeting Changing Needs

Aged care refurbishment is undergoing a transformation to align with the changing needs and preferences of residents.

Facilities are moving towards person-centered care models, where individual autonomy and choice are prioritised.

Refurbishment projects aim to create homelike environments that promote dignity, independence, and social engagement.

From updating outdated infrastructure to enhancing accessibility and safety features, refurbishment initiatives focus on improving the overall quality of life for residents.

Aged Care Design: Embracing Innovation

Innovative design concepts are reshaping the aged care landscape, with a focus on creating modern, functional, and aesthetically pleasing environments. Aged care design integrates elements of hospitality, wellness, and sustainability to foster a sense of community and belonging. Interior spaces are designed to maximise natural light, optimise spatial flow, and incorporate biophilic elements to enhance well-being.

From communal lounges and dining areas to private living quarters, aged care design prioritises comfort, accessibility, and sensory stimulation.

Interior Design in Aged Care: Creating Comfortable Living Spaces

Interior design plays a crucial role in shaping the ambiance and atmosphere of aged care facilities. Designers focus on creating inviting, comfortable, and inclusive spaces that cater to the diverse needs of residents.

Warm color palettes, ergonomic furniture, and sensory-rich environments are used to create calming and nurturing spaces.

Attention is given to incorporating familiar elements from residents' pasts, such as artwork, memorabilia, and familiar furnishings, to evoke feelings of nostalgia and familiarity.
