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.
