Right seating, right timing, and right place - seating in residential facilities and the consequences of non provision
As the population ages, providing comfortable and supportive seating in nursing homes has become more critical than ever. This webinar explores the significant benefits of investing in proper seating for elderly residents in long-term care facilities.
Attendees will learn how well-designed seating can improve physical health, reduce the risk of pressure sores, enhance mobility, and support better posture. The session will also address the mental and emotional well-being of residents, emphasising how comfort and dignity are maintained through thoughtful seating choices.
Design for an aging population
By considering the changes that happen to us when we age and careful thought in the contents of the brief, we can produce interiors and environments that can enhance the experience of residents in our Care Homes. In this webinar we discuss those changes and the various ways to produce good interiors.
