STUDIO E, an ERDMAN Center of Thought Leadership & Innovation in Healthcare, is working with several behavioral health clients on the hypothesis, “Can concepts driving culture change in senior living and other aspects of  healthcare – such as small household design and on-stage/off-stage planning – translate in a behavioral healthcare setting to facilitate an effective balance between safety and patient comfort, dignity, and control?” Related to this hypothesis is the thought: Can architecture influence behavior? We believe the answer is yes, by having a human-scaled environment of care. In support of the ongoing work around this hypothesis, Jennifer will share case studies and work on the boards of a variety of projects embracing this approach.

 

Learning Objectives

  • Identify parallels between inpatient behavioral health environments and assisted living/memory care in senior living and the evidence-based unit design interventions that can address both.
  • Analyze some of the still-unsolved debates in behavioral health inpatient design and potential strategies to achieve patient and staff safety when choosing residential style designs.
  • Describe the unique patient and staff needs of a partial hospitalization/intensive outpatient program and evidence-based design strategies to address them.
  • Understand a theory of a continuum of behavioral health care and the benefits of co-locating service offerings.
