“…This study claims that decorations have no significant effect on communication. In another mixed-method study by Gharaveis, Shepley, and Gaines (2016) in rehabilitation units, residents emphasized the importance of daylighting in communication. Additionally, interior design features and ergonomically suitable seating arrangements have positive effects on social interactions in healthcare facilities (Dijkstra, Pieterse, & Pruyn, 2006).…”

The purpose of this systematic review is to investigate the current knowledge about the impact of healthcare facility design on teamwork and communication by exploring the relevant literature. Teamwork and communication are behavioral factors that are impacted by physical design. However, the effects of environmental factors on teamwork and communication have not been investigated extensively in healthcare design literature. There are no published systematic reviews on the current topic. Searches were conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar databases in addition to targeted design journals including Health Environmental Research & Design, Environment and Behavior, Environmental Psychology, and Applied Ergonomics. Inclusion criteria were (a) full-text English language articles related to teamwork and communication and (b) involving any healthcare built environment and space design published in peer-reviewed journals between 1984 and 2017. Studies were extracted using defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. In the first phase, 26 of the 195 articles most relevant to teamwork and 19 studies of the 147 were identified and reviewed to understand the impact of communication in healthcare facilities. The literature regarding the impact of built environment on teamwork and communication were reviewed and explored in detail. Eighteen studies were selected and succinctly summarized as the final product of this review. Environmental design, which involves nurses, support staff, and physicians, is one of the critical factors that promotes the efficiency of teamwork and collaborative communication. Layout design, visibility, and accessibility levels are the most cited aspects of design which can affect the level of communication and teamwork in healthcare facilities.

“…(Alimoglu al., 2014), visual task performance (Figueiro et al, 2006), and medication dispensing errors (Buchanan et al, 1991). The existing studies also show the relationship between light exposure and patient outcomes including patient satisfaction (Gharaveis et al, 2016), length of stay (Beauchemin & Hays, 1996;Benedetti et al, 2001;Choi et al, 2012;Park et al, 2018), mood (Beauchemin & Hays, 1996;Walch et al, 2005), pain (Walch et al, 2005;Zadeh et al, 2014), and sleep (Hadi et al, 2019). Within the context of these studies, lighting has been measured through a variety of metrics such as: Based on prioritization of metrics, we selected duration of exposure and illuminance levels as the lighting metrics to implement in calculations.…”

Healthcare design practice has shown increasing interest in the assessment of design alternatives from a human-centered approach, focusing on organizational performance, patient health, and wellness outcomes, in addition to building performance. The goal of this research is to advance building analytics by identifying, defining and implementing computational human-centered design metrics. The knowledge is extracted from an exhaustive literature review in the field of evidence-based design (EBD), which has studied the associations between building features and the occupants' outcomes but has not yet consolidated the findings into metrics and implications for design practice in a systematic manner. In consultation with industry experts, we have prioritized the evaluation aspects and developed a weighted evaluation framework for assessment of various design options. The developed metrics that input building parameters and output potential health and performance outcomes are implemented in a a parametric environment utilizing add-ons accordingly, and using an ambulatory clinic designed by Perkins&Will as a case study.

“…For accidental injury of space environment, strategy can be summarized as: patients with perfect function layout to minimize unnecessary movement, as in the process of moving the supporting demand, create favorable positive nursing care environment. [14] Strategies for occupational exposure of space environment can be summarized as: measures to weaken the exposure by space environment, through building space layout control hazard scope, through the improvement of the medical operating environment control intrusion behavior, specific intrusive way of setting Angle of architecture technology barrier.

The hospital is an important part of public infrastructure in the development of modern society. As a modern hospital, it should adhere to the principle of people-oriented and the service objective of modern hospital architecture design. On the base of theory and practice analysis, the trend of modern hospital architecture aims to put forward a new idea of modern hospital architecture design to adapt to the update and change of medical mode in China. Hospital construction should not only consider the comfort level, but also consider the actual use process. Therefore, in the process of the construction of hospital, the surrounding environment is the design scheme and the technique and equipment of the hospital should be investigated.
