The art committee at Monument Health is comprised of caregivers from marketing, patient experience, diversity and inclusion, the foundation and facilities management. The committee worked with a consultant to develop standards for Monument Health artwork so that all pieces are selected with standards and design elements in mind.
Evidence Based Design
Part of offering a caring experience is providing patients and visitors with a cohesive, welcoming and calming environment. Health care spaces that follow best practices of “evidence-based design” have been proven to positively affect patient outcomes and caregiver satisfaction. Everything from the fabric of the furniture to the color of paint can have an effect — beyond decoration, the pictures on the wall and the layout of the room is of great importance.
