Old people prefer quiet to noisy. The whole room should be decorated with light colors, quiet and warm. You can try to use beige as the main tone and brown wooden furniture as the transition. This not only has the heavy feeling of years, but also won't be as cold and cheerless as pixel white. Moreover, light-colored home decoration will also make the whole space bright, spacious, suitable and comfortable.
2. Mattress hardness should be moderate to ensure blood circulation.
Many elderly people prefer to sleep on hard beds, which is actually negotiable. Unless parents really can't sleep well on a hard bed, they can choose a mattress with a certain softness.
Too hard bed board, lying on it for a long time will oppress people's back nerves and affect normal blood circulation. A little longer often leads to backache and even nerve ache.
A mattress that is too soft has no supporting capacity, and the body easily sinks. Lying on it will cause stress on the spine and even deformation in severe cases. In addition, it is not good for heat dissipation.
So you can let your parents accompany you when you choose a mattress at the beginning, and then make a decision after the actual experience. At the same time, it is also recommended to choose goods with big brands, so that the quality is more secure.
3, can be equipped with a massage sofa, which is helpful for health care.
In summer, I often see old people lying in rocking chairs and taking a nap to recuperate. The function of rocking chair is to avoid stagnation of qi and blood caused by sedentary, so that hands and feet can move slightly; At the same time, make regular sounds to help you fall asleep. But it is not suitable for sitting for a long time, and swinging for a long time will make people dizzy. So if you have some money, it is better to equip a massage sofa. From the leather touch and sponge sitting feeling, sofa is better than rocking chair. In addition, the back massager can also help to relieve blood and cultivate one's morality.
4. Silent door locks to reduce the interference sources of the elderly.
Creating a quiet residence comes from details. Many people will pay attention to the choice of door, but they are unaware of the lock. In fact, one of the sources of indoor noise pollution is door locks. The noise generated by most ordinary indoor door lock switches can reach about 70 decibels (equivalent to in a busy downtown). Although it was only a moment, it was also very noisy. Old people don't like it.
Therefore, parents can be equipped with mute locks to reduce noise and sound better.
The principle of silent lock is that the oblique tongue of the lock body will be embedded with high-strength nylon silent rubber ring, which can greatly reduce the collision surface with the pinch plate metal, resulting in low sound when closing the door. Under normal circumstances, the sound of the mute lock can basically be controlled at about 40 decibels, which is the size of dripping sound, and the mute effect is much better.
5, tiles are not as good as the floor, and the feet feel good and quiet.
Speaking of silence, the floor of parents' room is suggested to be paved. Flooring can be divided into cork flooring, solid wood flooring, solid wood composite flooring and laminate flooring. In terms of noise reduction performance, cork is the best, followed by solid wood.
The structure of the cork floor itself is a bit like a honeycomb, and half of it is air. So it is not only soft and comfortable, but also attractive; But the price of cork flooring is high and the audience is too small.
Solid wood flooring, which is cheaper than cork, also has a good sound insulation effect: there are many holes in the wood fiber structure of solid wood, which are sharp tools for heat insulation and sound absorption.
In addition, compared with cold tiles, the floor has better foot feeling and thermal insulation. More suitable for parents.
