    • Most of the time spent alone
    • Relative or HCP visiting regularly/irregularly
  • Elder care facility
    • Multiple PwDs inhabiting same building, with at least shared common spaces
    • More regular supervision by HCPs

Nowadays, many people with, just like our persona, still live at home, either with or without (in)formal caregivers. Some PwD do spend some daytime at a carecenter, but still go home at night. Lastly, there are many PwD who do live in an individual highly self-sufficient apartment.

For our scenario, the environment is concerning the PwD still living at home with a partner who is still active and away frequently. The home is thus equipped with a kitchen.
