St. Mary's Old Age Home

St. Mary's Old Age Home

As a person reach a certain age and retire or move to new surrounding, they may socialize less and their physical activities also reduces. Activities play an important role helping them stay physically fit and live as fully as possible. Activities also help in having good and healthy interactions. they improve relationships,
But the design of the activities should also be kept in mind. they should not only be according to their preferences and needs, but also to engage their mind and body.
My area of concern in micro environment is to take care of this- their activities- engaging their mind, improving their memory, and engaging them in healthy conversations.
Before designing something and thinking of a solution there are points that has to be kept in mind:

• It should be interesting
• It should be cost-effective
• Its should not exhaust them- physically as well as mentally 
• The environment created should be positive and not negative
•  It should make them productive
