Grand Rapids Home for Veterans - Wander for 3 South Floor Plan.pdf

This document is a floor plan schematic for the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans, specifically detailing the layout of the 3 South floor unit designed to address wandering behavior among residents. The plan illustrates a secure residential care area with controlled access points, including locked entry doors and monitored pathways to prevent unauthorized egress. The layout includes multiple resident rooms arranged around a central common area, with designated spaces for dining, activities, and staff supervision stations positioned to maximize sightlines throughout the unit. The design incorporates safety features such as secured windows, elimination of potential hiding spaces, and clear wayfinding elements to reduce resident confusion and agitation.

The schematic represents an operational modification to an existing state veterans' facility, focusing on environmental design as a therapeutic intervention for cognitive decline or behavioral concerns associated with dementia or similar conditions. No specific contract terms, pricing, response deadlines, or bidding information is contained within this floor plan document. The design appears to be part of facility renovation or operational planning rather than a competitive procurement solicitation, and reflects standards-based approaches to creating secure, therapeutic environments within long-term care settings for vulnerable populations.
