I think that this is an excellent concept. So much more freedom then in a conventional nursing home. Closer to a home environment then having one small room in a nursing home. Lots of space to wander safely.
Were at The Residence, an assusted living facility, in Darien, CT. It was 3700 a month,to house her there. Everything else was extra. Do, about 10000 a month. Its insane, what has happened to medical costs.
What an awesome idea to bring normality into their lives. I work in Geriatric Recreation and there should be more villages like this all around the world. This too would be a wonderful concept with people with autism.
Dementia is a broad term, describing a range of neurodegenerative disorders, and the most common of these is Alzheimer’s, which accounts for around 62% of people with dementia :)
What a wonderful concept. The village provides a level of 'independent' lifesytle in a safe environment, restoring dignity to the individual. It shouldn't be a question of affordability to build such a community as this but how much would a village like this save the NHS in the longterm?
It's expensive to take care of people with brain damage. In the US, its a state run facility, for folks on Social Security, or a private Assisted Living place. My sister had Lewy Body Dementia, for 7 years. Her first 4 were in her house in Ridgefield, CT, with caregivers 24 hrs a day. The last 3
I give credit to the Dutch people. In the USA, almost all homes are for-profit ownership. Anything outside cost savings, meaning the bare existence of a life with dignity, would not be tolerated.
This is fantastic. Unfortunately I believe American Memory Care is NOTHING like this. I work were 12 residents of different "Memory care" needs are kept. Locked out of their rooms ALL day. Sit in group ALL day in an area the size of a classroom. It's sad. Sure they have a small outdoor area ONLY allowed out when the caregivers say, needless, I've seen the group outside 4 times in 3 months. Ugh.
Also, if you want to take your mother away for a day, to the zoo or something, I'm fairly certain that is fine. As long as she then gets brought back. It's not like they are never allowed to be outside again, but they aren't allowed outside alone.
Hm.. Something to think about, but it didn't strike me as being much like the experience of living in most people's homes. Perhaps more like living in one of the "Retirement Villages" that seem to be much in fashion for people in the East of England where I live. These often have the provision of on-site support services for those that want/need them (and who can afford them), but this concept seems to exclude those without dementia. I can see both positives and negatives about the whole idea.
This is perfect. Your insight is amazing. This can be done all over the world. Less agitation, less medication, just lovely.

I agree....those with Alzheimer's as well.
Anne Rivera agreed
