Environmental design

Advice on dementia-friendly environments

High quality care, using a person-centred approach, is fundamental to achieving a therapeutic environment.

Included in this approach is our intention to make life easier for residents with dementia, and consequently, staff by providing helpful, rather than bewildering care settings.

We can advise on adapting current environments and building new ones, working with owners, managers and architects to develop care settings that use current evidence-based knowledge.
