Although computers are now often located in consultation rooms, their screens are generally oriented so that patients and those that accompany them to appointments can’t see them, but physicians can. This study investigated how changing the design of the consultation room so that patients, the people accompanying them to appointments, and the physician present could all see a computer screen in use and potentially all make modifications to the information displayed would influence patient-clinician interactions.

In the United Kingdom, one of the most intensively used ancillary rooms in an acute ward is the soiled workroom (dirty utility room) which “provides for storage of single use containers used for collection of human waste, its subsequent disposal and other associated activities, and the temporary holding of used equipment, materials and refuse prior to transfer to the disposal point to await collection.” A hospital planning team requested a review of a proposed standardized soiled workroom to establish whether a proposed design would provide an optimal layout for efficient and safe clinical activities.

Exploring the Impact of the Physical Environment on Patient Outcomes in Ambulatory Care Settings

Author(s): Gulwadi, G., Joseph, A., Keller, A.
Recent trends in healthcare have seen a shift in treating episodic care within acute care environments to ambulatory care centers (ACCs). These facilities distribute care based upon prevention and wellness to combat chronic disease and provide care management. Ambulatory care environments consist of a broad platform of care settings and deliver many types of care to a wide range of populations. Due to these and other complexities, research linking the impact of the physical design of ACCs on patient health outcomes has yet to be documented.
