You will find over 30 new Knowledge Repository entries from January and February with links to summaries/abstracts. Download the current edition.

Hot Topic: Staff and Wellbeing
Our frontline workers continue to bear the burden of COVID-19 on a daily basis, but even beyond the pandemic it is essential that our environments support the health and wellbeing of our healthcare staff. In this edition of the Snap you will find several papers on supportive design, and three that focus specifically on staff outcomes.

Additionally, we continue to see an influx of papers related to the built environment and COVID-19 (most of which are free/open-access), and you still have free access to our online Infection Control Toolbox and our always-open-access Knowledge Repository containing hundreds of references on infection control & prevention.

Other topic areas in the Snap include:

Experience
Safety
Care Across the Lifespan
Building Systems & Technology
Design & Evaluation
