PROGRAMMING


PROGRAMMING - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The residents at the Golden Waterfront is an assisted living center with an emphasis on Alzheimer’s care. It will encourage a normal way of life and open inviting atmosphere. The residence want the space to feel like home with social gathering or interactive areas. Vermont’s population is getting older. The baby boomers are beginning to retire, and the oldest ones will be 84 in 2030. This shift in demographics, along with general population increase, will put added pressure on the state’s already extremely tight housing market. In 2030, 24 percent of Vermonters will be 65 years of age or older, up from 13 percent in 2006.

Golden Waterfront is located in Burlighton, Vermont. Located on the waterfront of Lake Champlain has a great outdoor presence.. It is located here to give people living in this residence a sense of vacation they might have enjoyed in the past.


PROGRAMMING - SITE ANALYSIS

The building is new construction, stand-alone unit on land in Burlighton, Vermont. This location was chosen because of it proximity to water, community bike paths and community involvement. The building will be sited on the east-west axis to take full advantage of passive solar gain. The exterior of the building will contain healing gardens and walking paths, providing the desired connection to nature and the surrounding areas. The building is two stories high and consists of approximately 48,000 square feet.

The building will be used an assisted living and Alzheimer’s care facility. It will provide living units for residence. As well as activities, dinning and socialization areas.

The climate in Burlighton, Vermont is a cooler environment so a sense of warmth needs to be cre-ated. The interior also needs to be created that if the weather is bad there are no issues with staying inside.

PROGRAMMING - CASE STUDY

• Single Patient Rooms• Patients want privacy, safety and dignity • Should be designed so there is an increase in communication• Include private bathrooms to increase privacy• Should feature easy access for staff to increase efficiency and care• Easier to clean and disinfect• Easier to accommodate patience because only one gender• With privacy might be willing to share medical history more easily• Reduced noise levels were positive to sleep, mood, and pain tolerance• Negative was that staff would have to walk further to tend to separated patience• Negative if someone needs assistance no one else to call for it

Single-Patient Rooms for Safe Patient-Centered Hospitals http://www.informedesign.umn.edu/

• Noise affecting Nurses• Thought that loud noise is the most unbearable 66.4%• Though that repetitive noise is annoying 36.5%• Thought that most noise occurs during more active times and when nothing is going on• Thought that noise is more distracting when nerves and wanted peace and calm• Took longer to fall asleep if noise was an issue• Affects would also affect patience if noise got out of control


• Color Effects in a Hospital Room• Warm colors indicated the increase feelings of arousal• Cool colors indicated the increase of relaxed feelings• changing a room color could provide easy and low cost in promoting healing and wellness• White to some may increase feeling of stress and reduce the feeling of arousal• Orange walls had a great effect on providing feelings of arousal than green walls had on reducing stress• Study 1, no effect of wall color on stress, more stress with white• Study 2, orange room was rated as more arousing than white, orange rated as more attractive, white rated as more professional

Issue #1: Resident Quality of Life

Individual Differences in Reactions Towards Color in Simulated Health care Environments: The Role of Stimulus Screening Ability http://www.informedesign.umn.edu/

• Paint Colors used in nursing homes on residents’ well-being• More home like is a big advantage• Color is a major factor in the aesthetic of a room• Color can influence human behavior• Blues and greens can calm• In nursing homes, patient rooms should provide a balance of color, a mix of contrasting tones• Keep the space looking fresh and interesting

Nursing Homes, Sept 1994 by Linda Trent

Case Study

• Colorado State Veterans Nursing Home at Fitzsimons• Arora, CO• They used a mix of colors to create contrasting• Green was used to calm patients while orange tones used to create arousal• The space was also arranged to create a home like feeling• Patients have the choice to have single rooms or shared rooms• More soft textiles were used to help with acoustical properties



• Nursing Staff Involvement in Design• Important to understand needs of nursing staff• Future nursing care affects patient care and building design• Should be designed for health care of the future not just now• Each department or unit has its own needs that should be considered in the design

Staff Nurse Engagement in Health Facility Design http://www.informedesign.umn.edu/

• Improving Workplace Productivity• Create a hospitable work environment, provide service accommodations to employees• Try to support individual flexibility• Include informal staff support spaces

Creating a High Performance Workplace http://www.informedesign.umn.edu/

• Evidence-Based Health care Design Impacts Nursing• Growing demand for patient care and a shortage of nursing staff requires more mobile and productive nurses• Involve nurse leaders in developing design• Health care facilities employees using wireless medication bar code scanners reduced medication errors by 87%• Nurse support areas are important in creating a productive environment for nurses

Integration of Technology and Facility Design http://www.informedesign.umn.edu/

• Rethinking the Nurses Station• Most built for older technology• Traditional nurses stations are designed somewhat like a fortress and do not support new patient care delivery models or new work processes and technology• Higher counter tops accommodate more people and staff• Keep sightliness to patients is important• Impromptu meeting areas help with discussions• Still need to include sitting more secluded areas for certain work

PROGRAMMING - ERGONOMICS & HUMAN FACTORS

1. SAFETY AND WELL-BEING:

• Security (wandering, medications, etc.) o Check with state and city to see if there are specific codes and regulations. Eliminate places that people are more likely to fall. Provide safety, secured areas to walk. Use devices to detect when individuals are in areas they are not allowed to be in. Avoid sudden loud noises that can be startling. o Designing for Alzheimer’s Disease by Elizabeth Brawley o Outside safety. Accessible routes must be stable, firm, and slip resistant, with surfaces like decomposed granite, asphalt, wooden boardwalks, resilient mats, and concrete. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock

• Lighting Quality (artificial and daylighting) o Flickering fluorescent lights have been found to trigger epileptic seizures. Studies show that people with Alzheimer’s disease become agitated under fluorescent lighting. Keep in mind that lighting designed to reproduce natural light may reduce depression, fatigue, hyperactivity, and some incidences of disease. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o Glare is a major problem for most elderly people. The effects can cause an effect on balance, orientation, attention span and short term memory. Glare is often caused by unshielded artificial lighting or by direct sunlight when coming into a reflective interior space. o Designing for Aging an architects guide

2. COMFORT AND SENSE OF CHOICE AND CONTROL:

• Privacy (related to sense of control, interaction, and socialization) o Some patients need constant supervision. Low dividers, interior windows and vision panels can be used for unobtrusive observation. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o Need the opportunity to be alone and left alone. Observation and supervision are important parts of higher level care for the elderly . Designing for privacy is more than visual screening. Also provide acoustical privacy. Provide physical opportunities for privacy in facilities by limiting views of private areas or spaces. o Designing for Aging an architects guide

• Assisted Living o Lifetime care in one location. Provides independence and dignity of a home, individual assistance with daily activities, and physical medical care for life in the same location. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock



• Memory Care (Alzheimer’s care) o Provide sensory cues to prompt memory. A home that appeals to the five senses can improve orientation and reduce loss of memory. When cooking encourage involvement. Helping and eating with hands increases senses. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o Innovative trends that raise the level of special care design. Supported by latest research. A smaller number of people in a less stimulating , less confusing. o Designing for Alzheimer’s Disease by Elizabeth Brawley

3. EASE OF USE:

• Mobility and Functional Abilities o ADA • Loading zone in parking area. Elevator if over one floor. Adjustable heights in closets. Plan of evacuation must be pro vided. Bench or sitting spot next to dressing area. Mirror must be placed so visible from bench and if standing. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock • Easy path of travel. All common facilities should be completely accessible. Low or no thresh holds. No steps. Have an open floor plan. o Senior Cohousing by Charles Durrett o Universal Design • Controls should be large and easy to see. Specify push bars rather than pull-out buttons. Touch controls other than dials. Controls or remotes that can operate many items at one time or from one location. Eliminate extension cords. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock • A holistic approach to providing the maximum amount of affordable accessibility in every facet of the built and social environment, whether or not it is required by code. o Senior Cohousing by Charles Durrett

• Wayfinding Strategies o Strong reference point. Striking furniture arrangements. Color coding corridors may help some people. Alzheimer’s combined with visual impairment limits the ability to recognize color and to attach significance. Rely on tactile clues like actual objects. Fragrances and visual shapes are also important orientation cues. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o A change in floor-finish type, texture or color at corridor intersections can be helpful for way finding. Good design is to enable elderly people to read their surroundings at any point on site or building. Create small seating areas in alcoves with windows to the outside can enhance potential of interior corridor. Readable map and sign systems should provide land marks, design schemes, personalized doorways, changes in illumination levels, floor surface, sounds and smell. o Designing for Aging an architects guide



4. PRODUCTIVITY/PERFORMANCE:

• Staff o Take a hands off approach to encourage patients to be more independent. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o Need staff retreat. Caring for patients can be extremely demanding and draining job. All need the occasional break. Provide a quiet, comfortable, uplifting space, and a convenient work area where tasks can take place. Sufficient storage space is essential. Providing for staff needs delivers the message that staff is valued. o Designing for Alzheimer’s Disease by Elizabeth Brawley

• Resident daily activity (can be personal activities such as bathing, dressing, etc., or group activity such as exercise, arts & crafts) o Well designed walking path in a secure setting offers opportunity to release excess energy, stay in shape, get some sun and explore. A garden with raised beds so residents can grow there own vegetables and flowers. A place to snack provides a popular destination and encourages socializing. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o Increase opportunities for individual choice, minimize dependence and encourage independence, recognize the probability of decrease in physical mobility, improve orientation and comprehension, encourage social interaction, reduce conflict and distraction, provide a safe environment, make activities and services accessible, improve aging public image, and plan for growth and change. o Designing for Aging an architects guide

5. AESTHETICS:

• Color (finishes and furniture) o Appetite can be improved with warmer color choices for dining. Yellow to green tones should be avoided because they are associated with body fluids. Use intense color only for accents and for contrast to improve visual organization. Texture makes tones appear darker. A monochromatic color scheme may be perceived as institutional. The boundary between two intense colors eventually becomes visually unstable. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o Colors of similar intensity are more difficult to differentiate from one another. Harder to determine when with similar texture or on a reflective surface. Pastels, very dark shades and blues and greens are very difficult. Use very contrasting colors can help. o Designing for Aging an architects guide



• Contrast (finishes, furniture, fixtures) o Simple storage systems. Large spaces are disorienting and sometimes noisy. Each item and space should have a clear pur pose. Knobs are more difficult to use but may be more recognizable. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o Carpet should be used in lounges, corridors and other spaces used by residents to provide a pleasant walking surface. Will help reduce glare and sound. Patterned and easy to clean carpet should be used in dining areas. Corridor wall finishes should be designed to withstand high levels of traffic. Brick, concrete and tile must be smooth enough to avoid abrading or cutting people if used on wall. Ceilings should be textured, pattern painted or fabric covered to provide visual relief and serve as aids to orientation. o Designing for Aging an architects guide

• Lighting Quality (both artificial and natural) to enhance aesthetic experience of personal or shared space o Extra lighting is helpful when using a shower. A steam filled room makes vision harder. Color fluorescent light emphasizes the blue-green tones that are most difficult for people with cataracts to perceive. Fancy fixtures can be more distracting and create more of a glare. Hidden fixtures are cheaper and would be less distracting. o Design Details for Health by Cynthia Leibrock o The elderly may require up to twice as much lighting as younger people to archive visual activity. Vision begins to decline after the age of forty. With time there is an increase to glare and a decrease of color sensitivity. Fine details, distinguishing depth adapting to changes in brightness can decrease as people get older. o Designing for Aging an architects guide

Prerequisite 1: Minimum IAG Performance:

Construction Methods: (refer to GGHC EQ Credit 3) Control indoor air quality during construction and mitigated impacts on occupied building air quality. Flush newly constructed or renovated buildings with 100% outside air prior to occupancy.

Building materials: (refer to GGHC EQ Credits 4&8) Eliminate harmful VOC’s in materials and products used in the building. Examples of possible sources of indoor air pollution include adhesives, paints, carpeting, upholstery, manufactured wood products and other components of furniture, including medical furniture and equipment.

Chemical and Pollutant source control: (Refer to GGHC EQ Credit 5& Operations) Eliminate the use of chemicals and pollutants. Sources can include outdoor chemical use (including glutaraldehyde and other sterilizing agents and methylene chloride, used in adhesives removers, paint strippers, and aerosol spray paints). Cleaning products, fragrances and pest control activities.

Building maintenance and Operation: (refer to GGHC EQ credit 5 and GGHC Credit 6 & 7) Install sensors for relative humidity, temperature, and carbon dioxide. Consider occupant control systems to improve individual comfort.

Design Strategies: Use resources to ensure the environment quality of performance is accurate. Flush out the building, Meet credit for environmental quality.

Prerequisite 2: Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS) Control

Intent: Prevent exposure of building occupants, indoor surfaces, and ventilation air distribution systems to environmental tobacco smoke (ets).

Credit Goals: Prohibit smoking in the building (except as noted below).

Locate any exterior designated smoking areas at least 50 Ft (15.24 meters) away from entries, Operable windows, air intakes, bus stops, disabled parking, and other locations occupants could inadvertently come in contact with ETS when occupying , entering or leaving the building.

Only for residential facilities where the functional program requires accommodation for smokers may there be an exception to establish negative pressure smoking rooms: Configure for worst case conditions of transport of air from the smoking rooms to adjacent spaces with the smoking rooms’ doors closed to the adjacent spaces.

Design Strategies: Prohibit smoking in the building and other locations where occupants could inadvertently come in contacts with ETS. Take into account prevailing winds and Micro- Climate effects in sitting exterior smoking areas.

Prerequisite 3: Hazardous Material Removal or Encapsulation

Intent: Reduce the buildings occupant’s potential exposure to asbestos, mercury, lead, and mold: and, prevent associated harmful effects of these hazardous materials in existing buildings (new construction projects are exempt from compliance with these prerequisites).

Credit Goals: Establish a program for the discovery, testing and mitigation of asbestos, mercury, lead and mold. Identify applicable regulatory requirements. Obtain survey records that identify know contamination in the building and on the site. Survey locations where hazardous materials may be present in previously uninvestigated areas of the building and site.

Design Strategies: Engage an environmental testing agency and licensed abatement professional to audit building systems and materials and determine protocols and procedures to encapsulate or remove materials as appropri-ate.

Implement a mercury- free purchasing policy that targets construction materials. Pay particular attention to leads in C&D debris, often used as components of radiation protection systems.



Credit 1: Outdoor air delivery monitoring:

Intent: Provide capacity for ventilation system monitoring to help sustain occupant comfort and wellbeing.

Credit Goals: Install permanent monitoring systems that provide feedback on ventilation system performance to ensure that ventilation systems maintain design minimum ventilation requirements. Configure all monitoring equip-ment to generate an alarm when the conditions vary be 10% or more from a set point, via either a building automation system alarm to the building operator or via a visual or audible alert to the building occupants.

Design strategies: Put in CO2 sensors in each room. Provide airflow measurements equipment directly related to the HVAC System.

Credit 2: Natural Ventilation

Intent: Provide natural ventilation for improved occupant comfort, well-being, and productivity.

Credit Goals: Design Natural ventilation systems for occupied spaces in the building where allowed by relevant building code require elements and where air distribution design is not mandated and/or restricted by process re-quirements (Such as operating rooms, negative pressure isolation rooms, burn rooms, and certain other critical care rooms) to meet the recommendations set froth in the carbon trust “ good practice guide 237” (1998).

Design Strategies: 90% of rooms will have windows for natural ventilation. Use horizontal pivot windows to offer the highest ventilation capacity. Center vertical pivot windows have less ventilation capacity than horizontal pivot windows, but can act as wind scoops when wind direction is parallel to the building face. Incorporate fins and overhangs to create high and low wind pressure areas, and to channel incoming air.

Credit 3.1: Construction EG Management plan: During Construction

Intent: Reduce indoor air quality problems resulting from the construction/ renovation process in order to help sustain the comfort and well being of construction workers and building occupants.

Credit Goals: Develop and implement an environmental quality(EQ) Management plan for the construction and pre occupancy phase of the building as follows: Establish an integrated infection control team comprised, Control mold and Mildew, VOC absorption.

Design Strategies: Install full height partitions to contain dust and fumes during construction. Use temporary air handlers to control heating and cooling during construction. Vacuum and disinfect the bottom metal stud track with biocide similar, prior to second-side drywall installation to remove construction dust and debris.

Credit 3.2: Construction EQ management plan: Before occupancy

Intent: Reduce indoor air quality problems resulting from the construction/ renovation process in order to help sustain the comfort and well-being of construction workers and building occupants.

Credit Goals: develop and implement an Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Management plan for the pre-occupancy phase of the building.

Option 1: Flush out- after construction ends, prior to occupancy, and with all interior finishes installed, perform a building flush-out.Option 2: Air- Testing- Conduct baseline indoor air quality testing, after construction ends and prior to occupancy.

Design Strategies: Specification of low- emitting materials. Use finish materials that have low to no off – gassing and VOCs.



Credit 4.1: Low- emitting materials: interior adhesive and sealants Intent: Minimize indoor air constraints that are odorous, potentially irritating and / or harmful to the comfort and wellbeing of installers and occupants.

Credit Goals: Use only adhesives and sealants with volatile organic compound (VOC) content that does not exceed the VOC content limits of South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule #1168 limits schedule for 2007 as indicated in the table below. Aerosol adhesives not covered by rule 1168 must meet green seal standard GS-36 requirements.

Design Strategies: Specify low- VOC and non- carcinogenic, non- toxic materials in construction documents, including furniture and equipment specifications. Avoid use of all products with VOC content of 300 g/l or greater. Use green guard certified products.

Credit 4.2: Low emitting materials: wall and ceiling finishes.

APPENDICES

Assignment #4: Research Based DesignAnnie McIntyre

Summer 2010

Safety and Well Being:

Dottie is the resident in this room and is struggling with some depression. To help accommodate this there are several large windows looking to the outside. The hope is that natural light will help with motivation. Also the textile selection is very uplifting and creates energy. Helping to rise the spirits in the room.

Comfort and Sense of Choice and Control:

come and visit. To help accommodate this all the furniture has

or rearrange the room as they desire to make it more personal. Also to move seating closer to her if she is ever on bed rest.

Ease of Use:

A concern with the resident Dottie was that she is now in a wheel chair because of a broken hip. As time goes on she will hopefully no longer need to use the wheel chair. So the space was designed so that there was plenty of space for her to navigate. The bathroom was designed to be ADA friendly. Even if Dottie no longer needs a wheel chair she still might need the assistance of the grab bars for support.

Productivity / Performance:

The room was designed to help accommodate the resident. The bed is adjustable to assist with getting into or out of the bed and assist with any injuries. The sofa also converts into a bed incase the resident has any guests that are staying with them. The recliner is also for comfort so that you can truly relax.

Aesthetics:

The room has plenty of storage and a large entrance so that you don’t feel as if your space is being invaded when people enter your room. For Dottie the book shelf can be used to store all her knitting projects and to hold her books. For other residence it could be a space to display photos and accessories.

RESIDENT #3: Dottie is an 83 year old woman who has been in generally good health other than needing some minor assistance with her activities of daily living. She has a minor age-related vision problem and recently broke her hip in a fall. She is currently in a wheelchair and needs extensive physical rehabilitation if she is to regain her mobility. Dottie has been transferred out of an independent living situation into your skilled nursing facility. She loves to knit and read when she can, and would like her new

enough to adapt to her many visitors. She is experiencing some depression and would like the space to be designed in a way that helps raise her spirits and motivates her to stay active.
