convalescing home, drogheda

Proposed health campus and multi-generational residential community for Maybeck Developments - Donore Road, South Drogheda, County Louth

PAC1028 CONVALESCENT HOME and VOLUNTARY HOUSING AUGUST 2011



PRIMARY HEALTH The proposed Health Campus is accessed from Donore Road, with creche/ support facilities

PUBLIC BUS NETWORK Location is adjacent to town bus station, only five minutes walk away, adjacent stop

COMMUNITY NEEDS Convalescent Home proposed for 66 residents, staff + visitor access via Cherrybrook Drive

NATIONAL RAIL LINKSLocal and regional rail links 10 minute drive from convalescent home/ assisted living homes

PEDESTRIAN ACCESS 10 minute walk to Drogheda Town Centre from proposed medical campus

REGIONAL ROAD LINK5 minutes drive along Donore Road to connect to motorway linking Dublin/ Belfast (M1)

Why Drogheda? Context and Legislative Background

The strategic development of the site is designed to meet with local community needs using the opportunities presented by the particular topography and orientation of the landscape. The design has been developed by a professional team of architects, engineers and specialist healthcare professionals in liaison with a range of local medical care professionals to identify issues for delivery of quality medical and elderly care and support in the South Drogheda community.The proposal for a sustainable, multi-generational health campus and living neighbourhood community project was driven by a genuine need for this type of development in Drogheda. Ireland’s aging population is well documented at this stage but Drogheda has an exaggerated situation due to its close proximity to Dublin and Belfast from an employment perspective. Drogheda is Ireland’s largest town with a population of 32,000 that is projected to grow to 38,500 by 2022. 33.6 per cent of the population is in the 25-44 age bracket in comparison to the national average of 21.9 per cent. The development plan recognises this and calls for proposals and facilities to be put in place to deal with the inevitable demand of an aging population.

The ‘Louth Age-Friendly County’ initiative was established in 2008 and the strategy documentation was prepared in collaboration between the community, Louth County Council and the Health Service Executive. This documentation sets out clear objectives for social inclusion for the elderly.Drogheda is designated as a Primary Development Centre under the National Spatial Strategy. As part of the Economic Development Strategy for Drogheda and environs, an examination of the region found that within 20km of Drogheda there is a population of some 105,000 people and within a 40km range 750,000 people are resident. Most significantly, 1.7 million people are resident within a 60km range. The significance of these catchment areas lies in the fact that Drogheda is connected to major urban centres by a high quality road network including the M1 and M2 motorways. Drogheda also benefits from a high degree of public transport accessibility. This is particularly relevant to the provision of facilities for the elderly as research demonstrates that the ideal catchment area for a convalescent home is 25km to allow proximity to home, family and established community links.

Why Drogheda?A number of strategic Government policy documents underpin the proposed developmentand detailed design approach.

Louth County Council Development Plan 2009-2015

Policy HC 30 Promote the development of medical facilities within the town, neighbourhood centres and close to public transport nodes.

Drogheda Borough Council Development Plan 2011-2017

Section 6.2.4: Specialised HousingThe Housing Strategy establishes the importance of ensuring an adequate supply of housing suitable for a range of accommodation needs including older people and those with particular physical or other requirements. Where such needs have been identified, the provision of such specialised housing units, (including nursing homes), within private developments may be secured through the developer’s obligation under Part V of the Planning and Development Act 2000. The location for such specialised housing should have regard to the importance of accessibility by the occupants to local community facilities and services.

Section 6.3.5: Voluntary Housing SectorThe Council recognises the valuable contribution made by the voluntary housing sector and will continue to co-operate with such groups in the delivery of housing units within the Drogheda area.

Development Plan, Section 6.8.5: Nursing HomesThe Planning Authority considers that nursing homes should be located within or adjacent to built up areas where:Public utilities such as water and sewage facilities are availableOpportunities for greater inclusion/ integration with the communityAccessibility by means of public transport is availableVisitors can combine trips to see patients and relatives with other trips such as shopping and worshipping

Section 6.8.6: Primary Health FacilitiesThe provision of high quality health services is considered vital in providing for the needs of the Borough. There are a number of public, voluntary and private agencies responsible for the provision of health-care facilities in the Borough with the HSE being the primary body responsible for management and delivery of good health and personal social services. It is necessary that good health care is provided within the local community

The Louth Age-Friendly County Strategy Document

Section 3:Improved Location and Standards for Nursing HomesThe Louth Age-Friendly County Office will work with the County Council, the HSE, Nursing Homes Ireland HIQA and others to ensure that nursing homes are situated within communities, that they are designed to appropriately high standards, and if possible that they are located alongside supported housing, so that older people can move easily between the two.

Section 3:Supported Housing InitiativeThe Louth Age-Friendly County Office will work with the County Council, the HSE, social housing associations and others to increase the supply of suitable supported accommodation within the city. This form of housing is intended for older people who wish to live independently but within the security of home supports such as the provision of meals, communal laundry facilities, rapidly accessed health care services and security arrangements like on-site wardens.

Design strategy - dementia wingA purpose-designed dementia wing has been included in the scheme to facilitate the housing of residents suffering from a range of conditions. This wing has been positioned on the first floor adjacent to the entrance and reception area to allow for direct access to a secure zone, with ten specific living spaces for patients with dementia.

The wing has a dedicated sluice room, assisted bathing, fully accessible toilet, clinical store, visitors room and sitting rooms to ensure that all services are convenient. Access to a private area of the chapel is also provided.

Each room has a private planted balcony overlooking the main gardens below. An enclosed south-facing walled roof garden has also been provided directly outside of the sitting area al-lowing residents to access a bright, landscaped external space in a safe and secure manner.

When the elderly suffer from cognitive restrictions, a reduced ability to establish social contacts with people is typical. The therapeutic effect of green spaces that allow people with a limited radius of activity is well researched and documented. Our gardens are conceived as a means to stimulate activity whilst contributing to the physical and mental constitution of the residents. Raised planters and planted wall copings enable residents to come into direct contact with the natural world of landscape and climate, stimulating the senses.

Convalescent home - the private room

Above: 3-D view of a pair of bedrooms

The bedroom is the core of the private sphere. Great care has been taken in the design of the rooms to create a personal space that is bright, healthy, stimulating and practical:

- opportunities for the resident to personalise the space

- the bed can be placed in a number of different positions

- the rooms are sized to allow residents to bring their own furniture

- shared, interconnected balconies incorporate planting and seating

- reading area and desk overlook the gardens and balconies

- 16 square metres of useable space exceeds current HIQA bedroom standards

- bedrooms and showers are entirely accessible by wheelchair

- floor structure allows for underfloor heating

- natural materials used for durability and sensory qualities

Private rooms - space, light and materials

Convalescent home - the private room



Courtyard gardens between bedroom wings

The courtyard spaces between the bedroom wings of the proposed convalescent home are designed as a sequence of indivudual courtyard ‘plots’; each inhabitant has the oppor-tunity to plant and maintain a personal garden space within the wider context of the courtyard. Each garden therefore will describe personality and individual character with hard pav-ing, gravel paths and beds of flowers. These smaller garden spaces offer an opportunity to meander, meet with family or simply rest and take in views across Drogheda.

Garden spaces to immediate periphery of building

The periphery of the convalescent home/ assisted living dwellings is conceived of as a Victorian walled garden. The opportunity to walk around the site with family or friends is a crucial design quality aspired to with the project. Mak-ing places of interest to stop, sit and talk is considered fun-damental to the experience. The perimeter of the buildings and the connective pathways are set within the boundaries of the site. The judicious use of bedding plants, creepers, fruit trees and vegetable beds is considered in terms of gardening potential, as well as protection from overlooking and making warm, sunny places to rest.

Landscape treatment to the perimeter of the site

The perimeter walls of the site to the adjacent housing on Congress Avenue and Cherrybrook Drive already have small trees and shrubs in close proximity to the rear garden walls. In most areas these are two metres high. Our proposals in-clude for the reinforcement and security of the perimeter of the site with the planting of long grasses, suitable to the mi-croclimate in tandem with trees, screening views and pro-viding habitat for other wildlife and plants. The selection of grasses will ensure colour and interest all year round, with changing colours and textures through the seasons.

Landscape spaces to ridge of quarry and to Watery Steps

The northern edge of the site along the ridge of the quarry and down to the Watery Steps is a well established heathland. Our proposals here are to enhance the variety, colour and in-tensity of grasses and wild flowers in this natural landscape. A banded layout of ground cover planting and grasses brings variety through the seasons. The use of colours in summer in particular is intended to provide the opportunity for walks among wild flower meadows.
