Lighting in aged care facilities plays a significant role in supporting health and wellbeing and can be specifically designed to improve the welfare of those living with dementia.
Experts believe, light, like food and water, is essential to the overall quality of life. As one-quarter of Australia’s population is predicted to be older than 65 by 2050, greater attention is being given to aged care services.
Lighting plays a significant role in contributing to an individual’s health and wellbeing. Improper lighting design can cause fatigue, headaches, and tension, leading to discomfort and a decline in one’s health.
