Biodynamic Lighting for People with Dementia in Care Home Environments

Lighting for Health Ltd是一家独立的照明顾问公司，专门从事照明和健康方面的工作。我们设计了以人为中心的照明解决方案，利用生物动力照明将自然日光的质量带到室内。生物动力照明的视觉、昼夜和心理益处可以改善疗养院老年痴呆症患者的健康和福祉，使他们能够更长时间地独立生活，过上积极和充实的生活。需要进行一项研究，以调查生物动力照明的运行成本与疗养院老年人在员工时间安排、减少复合药物、改善睡眠和行为方面的成本效益。我们需要一位有资格分析定性数据的专家。这些发现将向疗养院提供者和投资者展示在疗养院安装生物动力照明的成本效益。这将表明，留住致力于照顾居民的员工是最好的回报，也是对老年人最好的照顾。

Lighting for Health Ltd are independent lighting consultants specialising in light and health. We design People Centred Lighting Solutions bringing the qualities of natural daylight indoors using biodynamic lighting. The visual, circadian and psychological benefits of biodynamic lighting can improve the health and wellbeing of older people with dementia in care homes to live active and fulfilling lives independently for longer. A study is needed to investigate the running costs of biodynamic lighting versus the cost effectiveness in staff timing, reduction of polypharmacy, improvement in sleep and behaviour of elderly in care homes. We need an expert qualified to analyse qualitative data. The findings would demonstrate to care home providers and investors the cost effectiveness also of installing biodynamic lighting in care homes. It would show that retaining staff that are committed to the care of the residents is best return for money and best care for the elderly.
