Thermal comfort relates to a condition of mind which expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment. In relation to Recreation and Health: older adults capacity to regulate body temperature decreases as they age and thus with lower metabolic rate they need higher temperatures to feel comfortable. To maintain optimal thermal comfort of residents many health care facilities provide state-of-the-art air conditioning systems to offer the best possible indoor climate.

So glad I found you, your site is such a blessing to me 😊. I have been a PCA for 17 yrs. I am in charge of making up the monthly calendar and coming up with new ideas. It was starting to be a real challenge. I encourage all my residents to join in daily but they need new things offered to hold their interest. So glad I took a chance and signed up with you!!! You're making my job a lot easier. Thank you and keep up the great work !! It's so appreciated.
