CPD Overview

This CPD by Polyflor addresses key considerations for specifying flooring in a dementia-led facility, dealing with general issues relating to dementia-friendly floorcoverings.


Description

The CPD seminar by Polyflor will provide an overview of dementia and the key considerations that have to be made when looking at the specification of flooring in a dementia-led facility, dealing with the general issues relating to dementia-friendly floorcoverings.

As dementia has regular exposure in the news across the world, this puts an emphasis on designing interiors that are inclusive, future proofed and dementia-friendly. Flooring manufacturers have a duty to be open and transparent about which of their products are felt to be more suitable than others and can promote less anxiety and stress for those living with dementia in a designed space.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand what dementia is - recognising the types & symptoms of dementia.
  • Learn how to use design to support living well with dementia.
  • Know the appropriate HBN Guidance.
  • Explore design principles for dementia-friendly flooring.
  • Gain increased confidence in specification for dementia-led facilities.
