Staff Change Area in Elderly Care Homes

Planning and running a Senior Living project is not only about Boarding and Lodging, it requires holistic, integrated and interactive space planning. Since infrastructure planning and service delivery are complementary to each other hence it is extremely crucial that there should be standardization for both these foundational aspects of Senior Care.

The attached document is from “Indian Health Facility Guidelines (HFG-India)” which is uploaded by RFHHA with knowledge partners TAHPI Pty Ltd & iHFG.

I have culled out a few room data sheets and room layouts on Staff Change Area as mentioned below:

1) Staff Change Area – 10/12/14/20/25/35/40 m2

Staff Change areas are provided for staff to change into appropriate work clothing, to store their personal clothes and to perform personal ablutions.

Change Rooms should be divided into Male and Female areas on a proportional basis and will include Showers, Toilets and hand basins. Secure storage for personal property will be required. Secured, staff only access to Change Rooms is required.
