Moving toward Life Model instead of Medical Model


Great article by David Green from Environments for Aging.  Interesting fact is that in 1960, research showed how important it is for people with dementia to live in small groups.  David's outlook on how important it is for providers, designers and regulators change how they approach the design process.  It is important to include an interior design professional who specializes in senior living to be part of the team along with the architect and contractor.  To design for the life model not medical model for environments.
