Abstract

Elderly adults experience physical and cognitive deterioration, which makes them more dependent on others for their daily needs. It is not always possible to provide adequate care in their own homes, emphasizing the crucial need for qualified residential care facilities (RCFs). Given that elderly spend most of their time indoors, it's crucial to provide a good indoor environment quality (IEQ) at RCF. Using the PRISMA scoping review approach, this study seeks to review the body of knowledge about IEQ elements of RCFs. A keyword search yielded 1044 possible papers; however, after removing irrelevant articles and duplications, only 94 papers remained to be reviewed. A snowball search was used to add 32 papers, and finally 126 papers were included in this paper.

Kurumsal Yaşlı Bakım Alanlarında İç Mekân Çevre Kalitesi: Tasarım Odaklı Araştırma Makalesi

Year 2023, Volume: 8 Issue: 1 - JASA_2023, 8(1), 123 - 145, 31.07.2023
https://doi.org/10.30785/mbud.1223526

Abstract

Yaşlı bireylerin fiziksel ve bilişsel işlevlerinin azalması, yaşamlarını başkalarına bağımlı olarak sürdürmeye neden olmaktadır. Bireylerin evlerinde sürekli bakım sağlamaya uygun koşullar bulunmadığında yaşlı kurumsal bakım alanların acil ihtiyacı karşılamaktadır. Yaşlı bireyler zamanlarının çoğunu iç mekanlarda geçirdikleri için, tesislerin yeterli iç ortam kalitesini sağlaması hayati önem taşır. Bu makalede, tesislerin iç mekân çevre kalitesi ile ilgili var olan literatürün incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Makalede PRISMA kapsam belirleme yaklaşımı benimsenmiştir. Belirlenen anahtar kelimeler ile yapılan arama sonucunda 1044 potansiyel makale tespit edilmiştir, ancak kapsam dışı makaleler ve tekrarlar elendikten sonra geriye analiz edilecek 94 makale kalmıştır. Kartopu yöntemi ile 32 adet makale eklenmiş olup, toplamda 126 adet makale araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuclara göre; gürültü kontrolü için izolasyon uygulanması ve bölgeleme yapılmasının, günışığı kullanımını arttırırken, kamaşmaya karşı kolay kullanımlı kontrol seçeneklerinin tercih edilmesinin, doğal havalandırmanın etkin şekilde kullanımına ek olarak kullanıcıların kolay kontrol edebileceği HVAC sistemlerinin kullanımının kurumsal yaşlı bakım alanlarında iç mekân çevre kalitesinin iyileştirilmesine katkıda bulunduğunu göstermektedir.
