After years of development, aging furniture has become mature. What are the planning features of aging furniture that we should pay attention to.
1. Fall prevention
Data shows that falls have become the primary cause of death among elderly people aged 65 and above in China due to injuries!
Firstly, the bedroom is the primary home scene for elderly people to fall; The probability of injury is high for elderly people who move and fall by the bedside, as changes in their body's center of gravity and posture when sitting up from the bedside can lead to loss of balance, temporary blood pressure drop, dizziness, and other conditions. Some people with lower limb weakness due to physiological degradation will not easily control their center of gravity and fall if they stand up unwillingly. We have planned a rotating nursing bed based on this issue, which includes functions of getting up and rotating, allowing the elderly to wake up without their own actions and easily lie down throughout the entire process; To reduce the risk of falling.
Secondly, bathhouses are the second most common scene for elderly people to fall. If the elderly choose to stand in the bathtub, it is easy to fall due to the relationship between long-term standing after bathing and blood circulation after bathing; Also, the damp floor in the bathroom is not as flexible as when the elderly were young, and it is very easy to fall. We should use shower chairs and armrests to assist elderly people in reducing their standing time and avoiding the risk of falling.
Toilets are also a crucial place to avoid falling. Elderly people often suffer from constipation due to decreased physical function. The longer they go to the bathroom, the greater the likelihood of falling. Choosing a toilet armrest for aging planning can address this issue. Brushing teeth and washing face every day also require appropriate protection. Here, we have chosen a hand basin with a handrail this season, which can assist the elderly in standing on the handrail while brushing their teeth.
2. Suitable for the elderly
Satisfied with the physical functions and daily habits of elderly people
In the final analysis, furniture that is suitable for aging is planned based on the physical functions and daily habits of the elderly; Only by considering this can we plan suitable aging furniture that meets the needs of the elderly.
From a safety perspective, we have rounded off all aged furniture to reduce the damage caused by bumps and bumps in the daily lives of the elderly; The scale of aging furniture is also crucial. We should try our best to plan simple and useful furniture to reduce unnecessary decoration. The scale should meet the daily needs of the elderly, and the scale and height should be exactly suitable for the elderly.
3. Security
Ensuring the safety and well-being of the elderly is a top priority
The safety of aging furniture is also a safety guarantee for the elderly who use it. The key to ensuring the safety of aging furniture is to choose stable structures and healthy and environmentally friendly materials; Using high-end solid wood as the structure, green and pollution-free wood paint finish, high-quality leather or fabric as the fabric, and air fiber or high-density sponge filling to make common aged furniture.
