DEMENTIA FRIENDLY

Dar L-Annunzjata provides dementia care for our residents. Dementia is a progressive condition and the elderly may be affected. Having an entire residence with Dementia friendly environments, practices, and concepts will enhance care and limit further disorientation and problems for our residents.

Care is provided on a 24/7 basis through professional, caring, and trained clinical and hospitality staff. All floors are designed to facilitate resident movement without restricting them from having an active life. More so, dementia-friendly colour schemes in bedrooms, bathrooms, living/dining rooms, soft furnishings, furniture, tiles, and corridors were used. 

Absolute values at Dar L-Annunzjata are inclusion and active ageing. All residents irrespective of whether they have dementia or not are encouraged to be active and be part of the community within the Residence. An innovative wearable nurse call system for elderly is provided for all residents. Residents can call for care assistance through it from any place within the Residence. This facilitates movement by residents since they will not be confined by their bedsides from where they can call for assistance should they have the need. Call alerts and locations from where the call was activated are immediately picked up on technological applications provided to our staff and assistance can be more effective, efficient, and timely.
