R E D H A V E N C A R E H O M E S
INTRODUCTION
The rise of baby boomers is increasingly changing the
senior living landscape on a large scale. Amenities and
services provided have to be of top quality to meet the
resident's demand and expectation. People don't settle
for less nowadays and here we look at some of the
senior living design trends which caught people's
attention and were highly praised.
FLEXIBLE DESIGNING
Open and flexible designs with lots of space
generated high attraction for private assisted
living centers. A common room helps to organize
various activities and gatherings with all the
elder members of the community.
BOUTIQUE AMENITIES
Taste and preference of seniors are changing
each day as they are looking for interactive dining
experiences with all other members rather than
eating their meal only. High-quality hospitality
services like those of restaurants with flexible
dining hours, multiple places are highly
appreciated by the members.
BIOPHILIC DESIGN &NATURAL COLORS
Biophilic designs are appropriate for modern
assisted living facilities as they give a unique and
innovative touch. Living plant walls, wooden
ceiling, gives a natural look to the indoors
thereby infusing positive energy among the
senior members
HEALTH &WELLNESS ROOM
Yoga and fitness rooms are a must for modern
senior care facilities to maintain a proper mind,
body, and soul of the members. Communities are
trying to meet every want and are providing
fitness, yoga and wellness classes along with
equipment designed for the elderly.
USE OF MODERNTECHNOLOGY
Senior citizens are more tech savvy with the growth
of smartphones and tablets and so availability of
modern technology in assisted living communities is
of high priority. Senior care communities are trying
to integrate all modern technologies like availability
of Wi-Fi, keyless room entry to catch the eye of the
people.
DEMAND FOR MODULARCARPET TILES
Modular carpet tiles are introduced long ago but
their demand is still strong due to ease of
installation, ability to change tiles and the benefits
of less wastage. Major improvements have taken
place with the dye lots and patterns and are widely
used by senior living communities.
USE OF LED LIGHTING
Expense gets reduced with the use of LED lighting
and so all modern home senior care communities
are looking to install LED bulbs to lower
maintenance cost and enjoy long-term cost savings.
LED lighting helps to maintain body's natural
circadian rhythm, which is highly beneficial for
memory care residents.
