Outdoor Spaces: Key Features for Senior Living Communities in San Diego
Safety and Accessibility
We understand that the residents in San Diego’s senior living communities are from all walks of life. That’s why outdoor spaces should be accessible to everyone, regardless of mobility. For landscapers, that means keeping wide pathways free from obstructions, such as overgrown shrubs. It also means ensuring signage is clear and easy to read.
Native Plants
Does your community have native plants installed? If not, consider adding native plants to your community. Native plants thrive with minimal maintenance and create a sustainable landscape. Adding native plants to your landscape design is also an excellent way to attract birds and butterflies, which adds a dose of life to your community. Place a comfortable bench in an area with native plants to allow your residents to watch birds and butterflies.
Seasonal Planting
Seasonal planting is one of the best ways to keep outdoor spaces visually appealing. Seasonal blooms provide new colors and scents, sure to please residents and visitors alike!
Gardening Programs
Keeping your senior residents active is extremely beneficial. It can enhance cognitive function, balance, and coordination. Here's where gardening can help. Gardening is an excellent activity that keeps seniors active and connects them to nature. We recommend adding raised garden beds to your common areas. You may also want to consider creating an edible garden in a plot of land where participants can grow vegetables, herbs, and more. The sights, scents, and textures participants experience while gardening provides a calming experience.
