Joint and spine center boasts comforts of home

Christ Hospital facility's patient rooms feature entertainment systems


The Christ Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio,  built a joint and spine center that emphasizes patient comfort, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.

Patient rooms have wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling frosted and clear glass, and patients are given electronic control of drapes that provide interior and exterior privacy if needed, the article said.

An entertainment and information system, residential-style bathrooms with full-size showers and vanities, and flexible seating were included to offer some comforts of home.

Family and staff spaces adjoin window walls and have views of a landscaped central courtyard and downtown Cincinnati.
