苏格兰政府老年人与平等事务部长克里斯蒂娜·麦凯尔维 (Christina McKelvie MSP) 听取了关于代际村庄的提案,并了解了大学主导的苏格兰健康老龄化 (HAGIS) 项目的概况,这是苏格兰第一个针对老年人的纵向研究。
部长今天访问痴呆症服务发展中心 (DSDC),受到副校长(研究)朱迪思·菲利普斯教授的欢迎,并参观了大学的设计和技术套件,其中展示了适合痴呆症患者的设计原则。
该大学是老龄化和痴呆症研究方面领先的专业中心,研究人员与政策制定者和从业者密切合作,开发尖端解决方案,以鼓励老年人的独立和福祉。
它已制定了代际生活创新中心的计划,作为最新技术、健康和社会护理、建筑和街景解决方案的试验台,以促进老年人的健康生活。它还将使社区能够以一种为所有人提供利益和支持的方式共同生活。

Working with industry and policymakers, we are developing innovative solutions that are enabling older people to live independent lives, for longer.
Other innovations at the University include the award-winning Iridis app, developed by DSDC in collaboration with Space Group to offer expert guidance on dementia design at the touch of a button. App users can assess both new and existing buildings to understand the impact of the environment – such as layout and internal finish – on people with dementia, allowing those with age-related impairments to enjoy a greater quality of life and remain independent for longer.
Ms McKelvie said: “I was delighted to visit the University of Stirling to find out more about its important work on dementia and healthy ageing.
“These are high priority policy areas for the Scottish Government as we seek to look at the opportunities and challenges around the ageing population.
“我们继续与国家和地方合作伙伴合作,实施我们的第三个国家痴呆症战略;我们的第一个老年人框架将于春季发布。”
Professor Phillips said: “University of Stirling researchers are spearheading efforts to better understand ageing and dementia.
“Working with industry and policymakers, we are developing innovative solutions that are enabling older people to live independent lives, for longer.
“Our plans for an Intergenerational Living Innovation Hub will build on this track record, positioning Scotland at the forefront of cutting-edge research on design and services for older people.”
