We explore the influence of dementia design on behaviours and psychological symptoms of dementia.
The panel (A/Prof Colm Cunningham, Liz Fuggle and Meredith Gresham) examine design in a range of dementia care settings, with a focus on residential care. They analyse the relationship between dementia design and good dementia care practices.
Overarchingly, they share the impact of poor dementia design on the behaviours of those living with dementia through the scope of colour, size, visibility and accessibility.
