Lighting for Nursing and Assisted-Care Facilities

Proper lighting to benefit the senior resident is a hallmark of a high-quality care facility. Accidental falls by residents and inaccurate label-readings by tending staff are just two risks to avoid with sufficient illumination. At the same time, visual and environmental comfort is of utmost importance in areas of rest and relaxation. Acuity Brands Lighting's vast array of lighting and lighting-control products makes it easier for you to select the right product for the right location.  

Indoor Ambient

Enhanced visual comfort and minimized shadows are the byproducts of the smart design behind the Lithonia Lighting Avante general-lighting series. These luminaires provide an optimum mix of directional and diffused, reflected light for balanced illumination enjoyed in variable applications but ideal for the senior-living home.

 

Accent

Where home care is administered, less institutional-style lighting helps residents feel more content. Lithonia Lighting has a wide selection of elegant luminaires for the residential healthcare environment. Included are sconces, pendants, chandeliers, cabinet lighting and recessed downlights, many of which are EnergyStar-rated.

 

Outdoor

Find a wide variety of historically inspired luminaires in energy-efficient H.I.D. sources from Antique Street Lamps. Styles include acorns, spheres, and lanterns, all with decorative options. Choose from a large collection of posts and arms to complete the look.
 

It's all About Safety and Sensibilities

Lighting is your critical safety factor for the convalescing resident, but comfort, too, is important. Lithonia Lighting's high-performance T8 Lighting combines the best available T8 lamp and ballast technology within a luminaire that was specifically designed to balance optimized efficiency with a comfortable distribution of light.

Costs Under Controls

The Highland Park, at right, is just one of the more intriguing street-lighting designs available from Tersen. It brings a new dimension to the residential-style facility, and is even more cost-effective when paired with photocontrols from Dark to Light.
