Find Signage Dementia Kitchen Sign

Find Signage Dementia Kitchen Sign

It can be incredibly difficult for those with dementia to read standard signage, and in unfamiliar environments like new care homes and hospitals this can cause significant stress and anxiety. As a result, it's vital you do everything you can to help those under your care find their way.

The Find Signage Dementia Kitchen Sign has been designed specifically to aid those with dementia to find the kitchen in your facility, helping to reduce your residents' levels of stress and anxiety.

Designed for Dementia
By targeting key cognitive factors that usually influence those with dementia, the sign provides residents with multi-sensory recognition ? touch, pictorial and colour ? giving them a clear idea of what the sign is for and helping them find their way more easily.

Reduce Stress and Anxiety
Being lost in an unfamiliar environment like a new care home can cause individuals with dementia to suffer from serious stress and anxiety, which can make what is meant to feel like their new home instead feel like a labyrinth with no exit.

This clear and easy to locate sign helps you give residents a clear and easy to understand indication as to what the labelled door is for, helping them guide themselves and reducing the anxiety a new environment can cause them.

Available for Different Environments
To give as many individuals as possible the benefits of Find Signage, the sign is available in different options to meet the needs of different care environments. The available options are:

Standard
Hygenus
Self-adhesive
Standard signs are designed for care home use ? they feature a durable construction for demanding environments as well as a hidden integrated wall fitting to reduce risk of vandalism. Hygenus signs are made from materials that meet infection control standards, making them great for hospital use.

Self-adhesive signs are great for low-traffic areas and individuals' homes where permanent signage may be needed (although it should be noted that if removed these signs can cause damage to decor). Please note that self-adhesive signs are only available in size Small.

For a full breakdown of the differences and suitability of each option, please consult the Specifications tab above.

Different Colours Available
The sign is available with four different background colours to choose from:

Blue
