Several previous studies have shown that effective care in a stroke unit requires early rehabilitation and mobilization among patients, as well as the presence of multidisciplinary stroke experts and comprehensive therapies. Though the concept of evidence-based design have been applied to a wide variety of specific medical environments and situations, its application to the physical environment surrounding patients who are recovering from strokes requires further investigation.
