The aim of this study is to provide some suggestions for architectural planning and design of nursing homes. The analysis is based on the data, autonomy level of the residents and the utilization of private rooms, accumulated in 5.8 years from 1998 when the nursing home was established. The main results of the study are abstracted as follows: 1) The residents moving in and out of the facility goes slowly but steady, and the nursing home is the final place of their lives for most of the residents. 2) The transition in autonomy of the residents has a great impact on the utilization of private rooms, and how to provide enough medical care to the residents is a big issue in the nursing home which is not a hospital. 3) The facilities such as care-giver stations and toilet rooms ought to be located equally adjacent to the private rooms, so that the residents don't need to move to other rooms during their stay. 4) A flexible plan that enables the facility's configuration to be altered to meet various situations is effective.
