Providing a groundbreaking approach to reinventing health care, this book is a practical guide to placing patient healing back at the center of the hospital's mission. Drawing on a wealth of practical experience, the authors show health care professionals how to decrease costs and improve quality by restructuring hospital services around patients and their needs and by utilizing design and architecture to enhance the healing environment. Using the core concepts of systems theory, extensive research, and lessons from pioneering hospitals, they present state-of-the-art health care practices that heal as well as cure. - from Amzon
