Dementia Signage
Our dementia signage uses the latest thinking on dementia communications to make signage clear.
What is Dementia Signage?
Dementia signage does what general signage does – helps people find their way around – but is specifically designed to aid comprehension for those with dementia. It calls into play various theories on how those with dementia take in information and uses them in its design. Our dementia signage uses a combination of colour contrast theory, light reflectance value, pictorial images and words to augment understanding.
Why use Dementia Signage?
We are all familiar with the concept of signage and its importance in large, complex buildings such as hospitals for wayfinding. People living with dementia find it particularly difficult to understand signage and so require additional aids to help them find their way. Using signage designed specifically for those with dementia gives them maximum opportunity to find their way around which has the obvious advantages of getting them to the right place but also minimises anxiety.
All too often, dementia signage has typically been seen as brash and child-like but we have developed a signage range that is appropriate as well as effective.
Our other dementia products that aid wayfinding include external healthcare signage, wall murals, Picture This, memory boxes and internal wayfinding signage.
Where would you use Dementia Signage?
Dementia signage should be used within any dementia friendly environment or any public space that leads to one. Our range includes standard door signage for bathrooms, toilets, bedrooms and communal areas and tailored directional and wayfinding signage for wards, corridors, lifts and other areas to aid navigation. It works equally well in hospital wards and care home settings.
Care Home Signs
Our care home signage is suitable for both dementia and non-dementia care homes to create a homely, familiar environment and aid wayfinding
What is Care Home Signs?
Care home signage is directional signage used for wayfinding in a care home environment. We offer signage solutions that can be used in dementia and non-dementia care home facilities.
Why use Care Home Signs?
People living in care homes need to be able to locate key areas within that environment and recognise spaces. This will include personal areas such as their own rooms and communal areas such as activity rooms, dining rooms and bathrooms.
Where would you use Care Home Signs?
Care home signage can be used throughout a care home environment in personal and communal areas.
