Modern hospitals’ journey towards patient-friendly practices.
Close to nature, these structures allow natural air and light.
In recent times, hospitals and treatment centres that provide holistic medicine are being shaped not only in terms of design but also in terms of providing a patient-friendly environment. Everything is set up in a way that is not only comfortable but also empowering and helpful to the patients. In this regard, these centres are given priority through various government incentives in our country as well. The Union AYUSH Ministry is also providing subsidies for the establishment of these holistic medical centres to promote traditional medical practices. Changes are taking place in hospital designs as well, and let us explain to you those changes below:
In the lap of nature…
Hospitals shouldn’t just be big buildings; it is also very important to be in touch with nature. Gardens on the hospital premises, natural light inside, and greenery all around have a positive effect on the patients. Being surrounded by nature not only reduces stress but also creates a relaxing atmosphere. Also, patients can recover quickly. In this background, hospitals are going into the lap of nature.
Positive atmosphere…
In the past, hospitals were all cramped and had identical rooms. But now the situation has changed. The rooms are quite spacious and suitable for the individual needs of the patients. Providing an environment suitable for personal attention and providing positive facilities for the patients. There are also special places to relax.
Personal privacy and respect…
The personal privacy and dignity of patients are given high priority. Private rooms, well-designed bathrooms, and special arrangements are being made for family members. All this is positive for the patients and helps them to recover quickly.
Art therapy..
Art therapy is also available in hospitals. That is, paintings, sculptures, and various works of art are being installed on the walls. They are comforting for such patients. Along with reducing stress, a positive outlook and hope for life are created.
Available technology
Modern technology plays a vital role in empowering patients. From viewing medical records to communicating on various topics, the use of technology has increased. Even after coming home from the hospital, it helps without any fear or problem. No matter where you are, you can consult specialist doctors with the facility of telehealth.
