AnnotationAs land values increase and people wish to remain in familiar inner city areas, we are more likely to see higher multi-storey care homes. This book describes the practical ways in which new and existing buildings can maximise opportunities for people with dementia to access outside space in balconies, roof terraces and roof gardens. It is one of a series published by the Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) to assist providers, architects, commissioners and managers to improve the design of buildings which are used by people with dementia.
