HammondCare Caulfield

HammondCare offers a range of accommodation alternatives that reflect our approach to create a feeling of home and belonging.

Every aspect of Caulfield Village has been specially designed to make life more comfortable and enjoyable for people living with dementia. The design features in each cottage include:

• Uniquely decorated memory boards are located at the entrance to residents’ rooms, providing a sense of connection, warmth and familiarity
• All rooms are spacious, well-maintained and have a calming colour palette to create a warm and inviting ambience for residents.
• The bathroom is located in direct line of sight from the bed and is easily identifiable with a wall light above
• All toilet seats are contrasted in colour to the bowl to help with depth and perception
• Bedroom doors are offset to minimise the likelihood of residents walking into someone else’s room
• All taps are colour-coded for safety and identification
• The interiors feature varied finishes on surfaces and subdued calming colours to minimise confusion
• There is direct line of sight from the entry of bedrooms to the sunrooms, living rooms and kitchen, to help with way-finding and decision making.
