When designing healthcare facilities for Millennial caregivers, the habits of those who experienced “helicopter parenting” and may plan to return the favor or apply the same practices to their own children should be taken into consideration, according to an article on the Healthcare Design website. For instance, when a loved one is being treated, they may expect to know what’s happening, in-real-time, every step of the way. Patient tracking monitors in family waiting spaces accommodate this, but mobile solutions that allow family to visit the gift shop or dining areas better address their inclination to multi-task.
