What is "Barrier 'A'ree"?
A movement in facility design that intentionally creates barriers in care facilities to prevent residents' functional abilities from declining.
Proposed at facilities like Yume no Mizumura Village in Yamaguchi and Chiba Prefectures, it involves residents serving their own meals and choosing from 200 different daily activities, leading to reduced care dependency levels.
With seniors now making up 25% of the population and an increase in elderly-to-elderly caregiving anticipated, proposals for living independently of care are in demand.
Progress in products and services that appropriately support the daily lives of the elderly without undue burden is anticipated.
