The decoration of elderly people is convenient for the main barrier-free furniture trend

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mr. Shi, the citizen, did not let himself idle, taking advantage of the festival activities and running through the home stores in Nanjing. It turned out that he sold an old house where his parents had lived, and switched to a new community with more complete facilities and a more beautiful environment. I just got the key to the new house in the first half of the year and recently helped my parents with the renovation. Summarizing the decoration experience of these two months, Mr. Shi found that the residential decoration of the elderly must be adapted to the physiological and psychological characteristics of the elderly, creating a comfortable and elegant, simple and convenient living environment.

Furniture to minimize corners

"There was no elevator in the old residential area. Just like my grandmother is 93 years old, it is very inconvenient to travel in a wheelchair." Mr. Shi introduced that because the grandmother lives with his parents, it is very difficult for the elderly to take care of the elderly, so they decided to change after discussing with their parents. house. When choosing a house, Mr. Shi and his parents paid special attention to the barrier-free design in the community to facilitate the entry and exit of the elderly.

The elderly are older, and the legs and feet are inevitably somewhat unfavourable. Mr. Shi said that the selection of indoor floors is non-slip. “Especially in the kitchen and bathroom, the floor is very slippery, so I chose the non-slip floor tiles.” Even so, Mr. Shi plans to lay a rubber mat on the floor tiles in front of the sink.

On this holiday, Mr. Shi is choosing all kinds of furniture. "My consideration is to start from the practical, it should be less and less." The careful Mr. Shi's requirement for furniture is that the exposed part should be minimized, and the sleek shape of furniture is preferred. Simple shape can give the elderly a sense of security. In addition, like the bedside table, "it is as big as possible to have a storage function, and it is convenient to place daily medicines and sphygmomanometers." Mr. Shi said.

Smart toilet and toilet paper say goodbye

"Older people, going to the toilet is a very difficult thing, hemorrhoids, constipation and other issues are more common, plus the elderly are often accompanied by high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, low-head rubbing or forced bowel movements when going to the toilet is a kind of Potential danger.” Ms. Shi, a 61-year-old citizen, told Jinling Evening News that her daughter changed her smart toilet last year and it is quite convenient and comfortable to use.

Ms. Shi calculated an account, Nanjing water fee 4 yuan / cubic meter, probably 200 times, a roll of toilet paper 3 yuan, up to 20 times, obviously smart toilets are more low carbon savings, "after the warm water rinse, warm Wind drying instead of toilet paper is healthier."

Ms. Shi introduced that the biggest advantage is that the heating function of the seat ring is turned on in winter. “In the middle of the night, the elderly get up and go to the toilet and not be frozen, and the night light mode will automatically activate the seat light in the dark, these humanized Solved the problem that our elderly people are difficult to go to the toilet."

Wall warmth is as comfortable as the sun

"Doing a good home decoration for the elderly can reflect the filial piety of the children. The choice of decorative materials should be coordinated and matched, which is in line with the mood of the elderly." In the interview, Jinling Evening News reporter learned that this "Leng Festival", Shandong Dexiang Electric Technology Co., Ltd. will bring a "carbon crystal wall warm" to old friends.

“The thickness of the wall is only 2 cm. It can be heated for 5 minutes, heating up quickly and evenly dissipating heat.” Cao Hongbo, a staff member of the company, said that in Nanjing, most people think it is a new thing, which is related to the heating in the north. More cost-effective. It is reported that the building with a building area of ​​100 square meters uses wall heating for 24 hours. The electricity cost for a whole winter is less than 2,000 yuan.

Cao Hongbo introduced that carbon crystal wall warming has other "magic effects": for example, it produces far-infrared rays with the same wavelength as human body light, which produces light wave therapy for the human body, reducing many diseases caused by moisture, and is more suitable for the elderly. .
