Title: Adapting the environment of Alzheimer residents: principles and expected results

 

Description:

Several projects have been created to meet the needs of seniors with major neurocognitive disorders (e.g. Alzheimer's disease). The most well-known adapted housing projects are Alzheimer’s villages, Alzheimer farms and Greenhouse projects. The first objective of this presentation will be to highlight the principles that underlie these Alzheimer special housing units and the research data that support them. The second objective will be to present a new Alzheimer residence recently created in Quebec City. Issues and challenges encountered in creating it will be discussed with the participants.
