It's a very apt description. Masking the term "dementia" with innuendo is only necessary if people believe the term has a negative connotation.

- jessriedel 7y agoI basically agree, but note you don't need to use innuendo. You can just name it "River Falls Village" or something, and then put "Dementia care facility" underneath. Likewise, the city of Edmonton, Alberta exists for resource extraction (especially oil sands) in Northern Canada, but they don't call it "Oil Extraction City".

- tyingq 7y agoThe facilities they run don't appear to have the word "Dementia" in them. It's just the name of the company that designs and builds them. See this one, called "Hogeweyk Care Centre": https://hogeweyk.dementiavillage.com/en/ https://hogeweyk.dementiavillage.com/en/
- jessriedel 7y agoAhh, makes more sense. Thanks.
