The recuperation facilities are the places for the elderly with handicapped and difficultly living at home to continuously occur long term recuperative life. But how the elderly spread their daily living behavior in the spaces of recuperation facilities is an important topic worthy to study. This study tries to choose a hospital-based nursing home as a case study, by the theory of time-geographic, tracking contents of the daily behavior for the middle dependent at nursing home, analyzing the relationship among daily behaviors, time and places, and classify the patterns of daily living behaviors and types of activity place, to realize the characteristics of daily living behavior and the interaction of activity place. Finally, we attain the results as follows: (1)Though under the restrictions of care system and management regulations of the institution, the patterns of daily living behavior are full of variety, and 'necessary behavior' and 'recreation behavior' are two mains for the middle dependent elderly; (2)the patterns of daily living behavior can be classified into 'quiet behavior', 'basic behavior', 'active recreation', 'passive recreation' and 'random without purpose' five types; (3)the activity place can be divided into 'bed-side', 'room-base', 'living unit-base', 'floor-base' and 'facility-base' five types; (4) 'bed-side' and 'public space' are mainly activity places for the elderly, the territory of activity is producing a polarization of tending to locate in 'private' and 'public'; (5) the elderly living in 'little-people room' spend more time of recreation behavior at room space than those in 'many-people room.' The elderly in 'many people room' have the inclination of occur their recreation behaviors towards public space. |
