In Canada\u2019s first dementia village, residents can walk by themselves outdoors on what seems like a never-ending path.<\/p>\n

They can leave by the front door of their house and walk along Main Street past the rock garden to the community centre. Or they can walk toward the Red Barn and circle behind near Bradshaw Meadow.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s eight-foot fencing that\u2019s mostly made of cedar bounding the property so residents can\u2019t wander and leave\u00a0The Village<\/a>,\u00a0which has one controlled entrance and exit.<\/p>\n

The needs of people living with dementia permeates every aspect of the design, from the pathways around the five-acre site to the spacious interior rooms able to accommodate wheelchairs.<\/p>\n

Eitaro Hirota, The Village project architect with\u00a0NSDA Architects, said one of the principles of designing for people with\u00a0dementia\u00a0is that you don\u2019t want dead-end corridors or paths.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you have a dead end, it goes to a destination so that it doesn\u2019t seem that the path ends and there\u2019s nothing there,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

A person living with dementia who comes up against a dead end can experience heightened anxiety. In some cases, it can lead to the person going through the door to the other side in what\u2019s called \u2018eloping.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you create an environment like The Village, that urge is diminished,\u201d Hirota said. \u201cThey have options. They have a variety of destinations to go to.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Village opened earlier this summer in Langley. It\u2019s inspired by De Hogeweyk, the world\u2019s first dementia village that opened in The Netherlands in 2009.<\/p>\n

Built at a cost of $28 million, Langley\u2019s The Village is designed to make it as easy as possible for someone with dementia to live their life independently. It has a beauty salon\/barbershop where people can get their hair cut and styled. There\u2019s a grocery store where residents can buy household items. At the community centre, you can order a coffee or have a meal.<\/p>\n

The Village is at 3920-198th St. on what\u2019s known as the old Bradshaw Elementary School site.<\/p>\n

Barb Ruscheinski knows The Village well. Her mother Regina, who has dementia, is a resident, as is her aunt Kay Gorse who doesn\u2019t. Both women were at\u00a0Maple Ridge Seniors Village\u00a0before moving into The Village. She described the Maple Ridge home as a \u201cwonderful place\u201d with \u201cvery caring staff.\u201d What it lacked, however, was the personal attention Ruscheinski\u2019s mother needed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need someone who could pay more attention to her and get her involved in day-to day activities that she always loved to do,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s been such a positive experience for us and our family. We\u2019re very happy to have them there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ruscheinski acknowledged the high cost of living at The Village. Including taxes, rates are $7,300 a month for regular residents and $8,300 a month for complex care.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very fortunate that they can afford to be there,\u201d she said. \u201cI think the model is fantastic. I think it could be applied just about anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Village builds on the kinds of assisted- and extended-care communities built by\u00a0Elroy Jespersen\u00a0during the past 30 years. Jespersen is the vice-president, special projects, for\u00a0Verve Senior Living\u00a0and the project leader for The Village.<\/p>\n

The site had to be big enough, Jespersen said, so that the residences could all be built on one level with no stairs.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of our principles is for villagers to roam free so they can walk out the door without any stairs or barriers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Village has 38 residents, a little less than half of the 78 it\u2019s designed to accommodate. Residents wear a Bluetooth-enabled wrist band that acts as an electronic key for their house and allows for real-time location monitoring.<\/p>\n

Earlier this spring, the\u00a0Alzheimer\u2019s Society of B.C. estimated that 70,000 people in B.C. are living with\u00a0dementia, an umbrella term that can include many diseases and conditions such as Alzheimer\u2019s, as well as head injuries. By 2033, as many as 120,000 people in B.C. could develop dementia.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe purposely need to move slowly because it\u2019s new for everybody \u2014 new for the people who work here and new for the people who live here,\u201d Jespersen said.<\/p>\n

One of\u00a0The Village\u2018s unique elements is that each house has the same group of 10 staff who work with 12 residents. A small, consistent group makes it easier for villagers and residents to get to know one another.<\/p>\n

Jespersen took Postmedia News on a tour of Holly House, one of the unoccupied residences. The house was identified by its name out front and a symbol of a leaping deer, a visual cue for someone with dementia who loses the ability to read. Inside, Holly House looked like more like a big suburban home than an institutional care facility.<\/p>\n

In the bedroom, the wardrobe has a unique design. A person with dementia can mix up the sequence of things and end up wearing underwear over their clothes. The wardrobe rack, visible from the bed, allows clothes to be laid out in their proper order so that someone can dress themselves unassisted when they wake up in the morning.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur success will be dependent on people who work here, how well they do their job and how long they stay. That\u2019s our product \u2014 this is our packaging,\u201d he said, referring to the surrounding buildings, paths and landscaping.<\/p>\n

Jespersen said he\u2019d love for researchers to come into\u00a0The Village\u00a0to study whether in fact a village designed and built for people with dementia is a better way to care for them.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it is, and we can demonstrate that, then it\u2019s something the government can look to and say, \u2018Maybe we should be looking to do more of these,\u2019 \u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019d love to be able to partner with government and make it more affordable.\u201d<\/p>\n
