Abstract

Nowadays so many public fitness facilities in residential quarters are not suitable for the elderly who requires nursing care to use, but their demands of rehabilitation can't be neglected. In this paper, design proposal based on demand characteristic of the elderly who requires nursing care is presented according to previous investigation in the ways of living. The principle of inclusive design is applied to demonstrate the feasibility of design by analysis of design practice, function positioning, easiness to use and the safety, which would provide references for public fitness facilities design for the elderly who requires nursing care.
