Mensen met Dementie

87% van de

mantelzorgers komt

weer terug in het zorg

stelsel na zorg te

hebben verleend aan

mensen met dementie.

Momenteel 256000

mensen die leven met

dementie. Verdubbeling

in komende 30 jaar.

Addressing the Societal Challenge

• De vergrijzing is een groot probleem voor NWE (Noord

West Europa) en een prioriteit voor de EU.

• Dementie is de meest voorkomende psychogeriatrische

aandoening. Het is een onomkeerbare progressieve

ziekte waarvan ongeveer 70% Alzheimer.

• 60 % van alle zorg voor mensen met dementie wordt door

de informele zorg gegeven (Alzheimer Nederland, 2008).

• Een antwoord bieden aan deze maatschappelijke

uitdaging moet door middel van innovaties en

samenwerkingen.

Intelligent Lighting solutions

• Elke regio heeft zijn eigen focus gebied

• Gedurende het project worden ervaringen, middelen

en innovaties uitgewisseld tussen de regios om zo

een breed internationaal living lab op te zetten.

• Intelligent Lighting

• Nutrition and exercise,

• Living environment with social and aesthetic

conditions

• Models of assistance for persons with dementia and

their carers

Example of Lighting Solution

nightly unrest and daytime sleepiness can be reduced by light therapy

cognitive performance loss reduced with 5%

CASE: Evaluatie van de vitaallicht

Hoe kunnen we een methode ontwikkelen waarmee we het

eerste persoons perspectief van mensen met dementie

kunnen gebruiken voor de evaluatie van de vitaallicht lamp in

de living lab context?

(30)

CASE: Methode “Aangenaam”

Probe game for informal caregiver and dementia patient

Question cards in four categories

Three answer options: Notebook, Audio recorder, Photo camera

3-4 question cards per day

CASE: Resultaten deel I

“I usually made a stained glass artwork in a couple of

weeks. Nowadays it takes me a year and half. That’s

why I do not enjoy it anymore.”

“These days, my hands do not know how

I make use of a telephone. My wife helps

me out.”

“I do not need money for luxury. I am

happy with what I got.”

“Sports are not really important to

me, I stay in shape by doing all

sorts of things throughout the day.“

“Cleaning the house, walking the

stairs and going for a walk are

tiresome. It takes a lot of energy

for me.”

(34)

CASE: Resultaten deel I

“We are from a generation of

people who live frugal, so it is

unnecessary to turn on a light

during the day.”

“The question is raised when such a lamp really

‘works’. Now the lamp was just a handy tool“

“The Vitaallicht lamp does not fit our

home environment. It is too big and

clunky!”

“People who get headaches from the

lamp, might try using sunglasses or a

sunshade.”

Life of the participants

Vitality

Light and Vitaallichtlamp

Individuals with their own needs, abilities and interests

Do not need more luxury, a bit reluctant towards new technology

Problems with forgetting most apparent

Not many problems

Tiredness during day and low on the measures of sleep quality

No experienced effects, some people like functionality

Looks are important for acceptance

Headaches
