Facility design can influence each area of the patient experience included in the HCAHPS survey.
The survey consists primarily of questions about how patients experience certain aspects of care during their hospital stay.
For instance, setting up the room so the patient can have a meaningful conversation with the provider may affect how they rate communication.
