Due to the gradual changes in the level of the elderly at the special stage of their lives from healthy to self-care, based on this feature, the designer strives to provide the elderly with self-care, assistance, and care through the classification and integration of functional spaces and streamline organization. Continuous care services at all stages.

▲Graded nursing

The "carea" transitional space is arranged in the podium, so that the elderly can complete the transitional environment without knowing it.

MODULAR

Modular design.

The modular design not only reasonably separates the space for different elderly care functions, but also ensures the flexibility of various spaces.

For different space characteristics and users, it can be separated into independent spaces and connected with each other.

While paying attention to the different physical and psychological needs of the elderly for living safety, comfort and privacy, it also improves the work efficiency of medical staff.

In order to integrate barrier-free smart terminal facilities for the elderly, more attention is paid to details, intelligence, and full consideration of the humanization of the elderly.

The designer focuses on in-depth research on the grasp of ergonomic scale, and plans a reasonable space scale to adapt to the placement of the facility.
