The design of nursing home facilities calls for new approaches that are designed to maximise the needs of the stakeholders1,2. The purpose of this study is to investigate (i) the current state of the art in technological and architectural solutions, including changes and features desired by professionals working in the domain of nursing home patient care as well as by those working with nursing home construction and technology, and (ii) the desires of nursing home residents concerning the home environment through multiple sessions with stakeholders and residents. The implicit goal of this investigation was to gather the insights and visions of all stakeholders in the field to determine the best practices for nursing home care and design, which, in turn, can be used for the design of a nursing home demonstration centre. Method Various methods allow the identification of stakeholder needs and the incorporation of those needs into a design, including co-creation sessions and focus groups3,4. An interactive, qualitative study design was chosen. Ten single disciplinary focus group sessions (with 95 professionals from various stakeholder groups), 22 interdisciplinary mind map sessions (with 97 professionals), 12 interdisciplinary prototyping sessions (with 56 professionals), and individual interviews (with 10 residents) were conducted from May to October 2013. Results & Discussion This study yielded extensive lists of themes and subthemes related to solutions and design guidelines that were considered essential by stakeholders from healthcare and technology fields, as well as from the residents. These domains should be used when designing new nursing homes because they are represent the needs of Dutch stakeholder. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: abstract proceedings research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
