The Dignity Health $220 million renovation's design focused on 'human kindness,' according to an article on the Health Facility Management website.
Feedback from patients and families informed the 39-hospital project that focuses on the physical environment’s impact on patient healing and experience.
The improvements will address the feeling of being welcomed and comfortable in a facility that is easy to navigate and fosters a spiritual, healing environment, the article said.
Patient rooms, emergency departments, nurses’ stations, family and surgery waiting areas, main lobbies, parking areas, gardens and common areas will be improved.
