ADL Kitchen

The space is to be functional for a range of patients including wheelchair users. The kitchen can include a combination of fittings and appliances such as a sink, cooktop, oven/grill, microwave and refrigerator to support common ADL training and assessment tasks as per service requirements. Room exhaust to be provided to range hood over cooktop.

Additional Considerations:

• An operational model for responding to calls from staff/patients will be needed to support the inclusion of a nurse call system and is to be determined based on service requirements. If multiple ADL rooms are combined into an ADL suite nurse call buttons can be rationalised into a central location.
• The room may be enclosed with a lockable door depending on security requirements.
• External outlook and access to natural light is desirable.
