The Effect of Garden Designs on Mood and Heart Output in Older Adults Residing in an Assisted Living Facility

Author(s): Goto, S., Park, B.-J., Tsunetsugu, Y., Herrup, K., Miyazaki, Y.
This research focuses on the impact that different garden designs have on people's mood and heart rate in a retirement community setting. The researchers had previously piloted a study focusing on elderly participants' aesthetic preferences for garden designs; they wanted to move beyond this to better understand where these preferences come from, and whether they are actually somehow hardwired in the brain from more innate psychological and biological responses, rather than cultural or learned.

The Effect of Hospital Unit Layout on Nurse Walking Behavior

Author(s): Yi, L., Seo, H.-B.
Over the course of a typical shift, nurses spend a lot of time on their feet, walking back and forth on the unit to take care of patients' needs. The long distances that nurses walk is a topic of concern in the industry. Some believe it may potentially impact the amount of time spent with patients and also because of the physical toll on nurses, day after day. Researchers are attempting to understand whether unit layout and design might be revised to reduce walking distances and create efficiencies that enhance patient care.
