LIFE TRANSITIONING FACILITY: A PROPOSED ASSISTED LIVING HOME FOR OLDER ADULTS

In the 2015 census, 26,884 people live in Unisan Quezon, and 13.65% are 55 or older. This means that Unisan alone has 3,670 elders in total. According to statistics from WHO, approximately 1 in 6 adults aged 18 and older have reported experiencing verbal, physical, or financial abuse in a community environment. Older adults get unwell and fragile as their bodies deteriorate, thus requiring more adoration, understanding, and care (Care INC).

Qualitative methods such as phenomenological and case studies are the basis of the project’s spaces. Data were collected and tabulated for the researcher to develop a viable design for the project.
