The entrance to the nursing home is located below the psycho-geriatric unit. The connecting building, which houses the psycho-geriatric unit and the canteen, is located beneath the hospital garden. Each unit is organised over two levels. The lounge areas and tea rooms are extended towards the outside. The upper levels offer more privacy. The supporting structure of the building and garden walls are made of exposed reinforced concrete. The windows in the rooms are arranged in such a way that lends each room its own character, while giving the external façade a distinctive look.
