The layout of the place of life
We should not hesitate to get help from competent people (social economy consultant and family therapists, social service assistants ...)
When planning a place to live, a few simple measures are recommended (not exhaustive):
* Prevent Accidents
The main danger lies in the kitchen and just gas.
The bathroom should be as functional and secure possible maximum temperature of the water blocked, soil anti-slip of handrails on the walls ...
* Prevent Falls: avoid unnecessary congestion, land sliding ...
* Promote autonomy in all parts of the house (easily accessible objects ...).
* Remove sources of stress and confusion:
o Do not move the familiar landmarks of the patient
o Promote the orientation of the person in time
+ Put a readable clock in every room
+ Hang an ephemeris (the person tear a page every day)
o Write legibly (eg over the telephone) the name, address and telephone number of the person.
Financing is possible with the ANAH (National Agency of habitat), the pension funds CNAVTS, and ARRCO IRCANTEC and the PALULOS (premium Improvement of rental housing and occupancy Sociale). Never start work before submitting the application for funding to these organizations.

My name is Matt and I wanted to thank you for your blog and your comments. I spent nearly four years working in an Alzheimer’s/Long Term Care facility in Utah and I know the difficulties and pains associated with this disease. I personally got to know some great people afflicted with Alzheimer’s and I also became close with some of their families. I’ve seen a lot of resources that help. One in particular seems to be a great benefit: http://www.thecaringspace.com
