symptoms like problem of communication, complete dependence on others for care, loss of mobility,
incontinence, problems eating, and unusual behaviors like repeating questions or asking to go “Home”

 INTRODUCTION :
• Old age refers to ages nearing or surpassing the life expectancy of human beings and is thus
the end of the human life cycle. Old people often have limited regenerative abilities and are
more susceptible to diseases syndromes, injuries and sickness than younger adults.
• Old age homes are meant for senior citizens who are unable to stay with their families or are
destitute.
• There are more than a thousand old age homes in India. Most of them offer free accommodation.
• They provide special facilities such as mobile health care systems, ambulances, nurses and
provision of well-balanced meals.
• Apart from food, shelter and medical amenities, old age homes also provide yoga classes to
senior citizens.
• Some old age homes have day care centers. These centers only take care of senior citizens
during the day.
• For older people who have nowhere to go and no one to support them, old age homes provide
a safe haven.
• These homes also create a family like atmosphere among the residents. Senior citizens experience
a sense of security and friendship when they share their joys and sorrows with each other.

• 19th century : Alms-house elderly population increased to 33% and further to 67%
• “1800 mm X 2000 mm”.

succeed the industrial world.

• The resident’s rooms are often grouped round a small sitting room and services area containing a
bathroom and lavatories.
• Circulation routes to the communal lounges and dining room should be as short as possible, although
routes through the residents’ groups should be avoided.
 TOILETS :
• Communal areas may either be centralized or divided between the residential groups, but most homes
have a main dining room, which should be close to a sitting area. • One special W.C. in a set of toilet shall be provided for the use of

 The W.C. seat shall be 500 mm from the floor.

 BUILDING EQUIPMENT AND FITTINGS :

imposed by age.

• TAPS :
 Choose taps that can be manipulated by arthritic fingers. Surgeon’s taps are not recommended, however, as in extreme cases ordinary taps can be modified to provide a similar facility. Name : p. sripooja
 Within one building, it is sensible to maintain consistency as to the location of hot and cold, e.g. hot always on the right as is now provided in current standards. In addition, the tops should always
be boldly color-coded. It is hoped that in the near future a standard for additional tactile identification will be introduced.


Wash basins should be fitted with their rims between 800 and 850 mm high.
Bathrooms should be large enough for undressing and dressing, and for someone else to lend a hand.

 Alternatively, the bath may be set with the trap below floor level.
 It should have as flat a bottom as possible and should not be longer than 1.5 m; lying down is not encouraged. College : vsap-h
 Grab handles and poles should be provided to help getting in and out.
 A seat at rim height is useful for sitting on to wash legs and feet.
 Bathroom and lavatory doors should open out, with locks operable from the outside in emergencies. Date :
• SHOWERS :
 Some old people find showers more convenient to use than baths.
 If the floor of the compartment is of smooth non-slip material with a fall to a drain of l:40, there is no need for a tray with an
upstand to be stepped over.
 The compartment should be well heated, with pegs for clothes on the dry side, divided from the wet with a shower curtain. Signature :
 The water supply should be automatically controlled to supply only between 35°C and 49°C.
 ROOM DATA AND SPACE REQUIREMENTS :  The shower head should be on the end of a flexible hose, with a variety of positions available for clipping it on. WCs should

Room data and space requirements for single rooms
• Easy chairs :
 A variety of chair types should be provided in sitting and common rooms, to ensure maximum comfort for all the old people.



Armrests 230 mm above the seat at the front facilitate getting up, but if lower at the back, make sewing and knitting easier.
There should be a gap under the seat to allow the heels to be drawn right back when rising.
Sheet no. :
 Generally, the padding should not be too soft and generous, as this can put strain on the tissues rather than allowing the
bone structure to support the body.

• Tables and dining chairs :
