| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how relocations effect to elderly nursing home residents and staffs during the renovation period on the same site, while they continue to operate the facility. The research was conducted and analyzed by interdisciplinary fields, such as architectural planning and design, psychiatry, gerontological nursing, psycho-gerontology, elderly care management.
The results are the followings.
Residents tend to spend more time in their private rooms in regardless of the quality of environmental relocation, especially in case of residents who have higher ADL and mental status. Relocation to better environment makes elderly residents to activate in public areas as living room, and to decrease null behaviors. Moreover, residents who have lower ADL and mental status depend on staff interaction and effected by the facility care policies. During the construction period, most staffs had difficulties to cope with the situations and the conditions, thus there were significantly increased in blood pressure and the pulse rates by relocation effects.
