India is home to 153 million senior citizens, and the number is expected to increase. Given this demographic trend, designing a senior living space to cater to their needs and requirements is crucial.
Our requirements evolve as we get older, and our homes may need to adapt as well. Therefore, senior living communities are designed to foster independence and promote well-being. The landscape of senior living in India is transforming while throwing out stereotypes to build more diverse and inclusive communities.
Every elder deserves their golden age to be filled with comfort, connection, and the freedom to pursue their passion. But it is not always easy.
Senior living spaces offer holistic services to keep you engaged and supported as you pursue your dreams. They handle everything from maintenance to daily chores, catering to the diverse needs of each senior and focusing on their comfort, mobility, and safety.
Factors like accessibility are important to consider while designing for senior living space. Since many elders have mobility problems such as muscle weakness or joint problems, incorporating a wheelchair-friendly space and other mobility aids like an elevator or ramp can prevent potential tripping hazards.
Ageing declines vision and hearing senses, increasing the risks of injuries. It can make it difficult to navigate their surroundings and impact their communications.
Placing bright or colorful lights throughout the space allows every resident to move freely without being overwhelmed. Room lights should have many adjustable light options to cater for their preferences.
Elders have more physical health complications, and incorporating features like handrails and grab bars, soft or non-slip flooring, well-equipped kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms, shock-free sockets, lowered counters and shelves, wider hallways, and ample resting places will significantly enhance their safety, promote relaxation and improve their overall well-being.
