Today, Thailand has entered an aging society, prompting many aspects of our community to change in response to the aging population. This includes transportation, tourism, healthcare, and even housing, which must adapt to this trend. As more elderly individuals reside in each household, and considering that most Thai families are large, the size of families is increasing as we transition into an aging society. Therefore, homes need to be modified to accommodate residents of various ages, ensuring that everyone can live together comfortably.

            For those facing challenges and unsure how to adapt their homes to this trend, SCG Experience, a hub for innovative home decoration ideas, offers services to design and renovate homes for the elderly under the concept of "Better Living Made Possible." Let’s explore how this service can help our beloved seniors live happily in our homes.

Design and Renovation Services for the Elderly

            SCG Experience provides services to enhance our homes for the elderly, focusing primarily on "safety" with comprehensive service standards from professional experts. They assist in preparing homes, especially for seniors returning home from the hospital for recovery. It is crucial to modify the living space to accommodate the changing daily routines of the elderly and to facilitate safer and more convenient care.

            The preparation steps for making homes safer are simple and consist of three main points:

  1. Assess the physical condition and health of the residents based on their physical characteristics and capabilities in performing daily activities, categorized into three levels.

Level 1: Seniors who can live normally both at home and outside but are at risk of future health issues, including accidents that may occur in daily life.
Level 2: Seniors who are beginning to experience physical decline or have minor health issues but can still assist themselves with occasional help from devices or caregivers.
Level 3: Seniors with significant health problems who cannot assist themselves in certain activities and require devices and caregivers for support.

Next, assess whether the living environment is conducive to the physical condition of the elderly and whether there are risks of accidents (e.g., falls), which are significant concerns for seniors.

  1. Select products that meet standards and are suitable for the elderly based on expert recommendations, as each individual's physical condition varies, leading to differences in the equipment and installation requirements.
  2. Receive design and renovation services from a team of experts or a Personalized Design Consultant who provides knowledge, advice, and designs various spaces such as bedrooms, bathrooms, or living areas to ensure maximum comfort and safety for seniors.

            At SCG Experience, they offer comprehensive services from consultation and design to installation, making home improvements for your elderly loved ones easier.

            They also sell products from both domestic and international sources suitable for seniors, such as beds, wheelchairs, walking sticks, sanitary ware, grab bars, and mobility devices for seniors who wish to go out. The quality of mobility products here is assured, as SCG truly understands the needs of the elderly and offers a Test Drive service for users to choose the products that best suit them, enabling seniors to live comfortably and engage in activities outside the home.

            SCG Experience also provides many other services and advice beneficial for those looking to renovate their homes for their beloved seniors. Consultations are available at both SCG Experience branches: SCG Experience Ekkamai-Ramintra and SCG Experience Design Village Buntaworn Ratchaphruek, or through the website https://bit.ly/2WO45u5 or by calling 02-586-2222.
