It addresses a range of healthcare facilities including children's hospitals, long-term care, acute care and outpatient care facilities, and uses a range of evidence-based design research methods, such as interviews, focus groups, observations, surveys and space syntax. The author also explains how research evidence and evidence-based design can be integrated into healthcare design more cohesively in a redefined design process. This book provides a solid conceptual structure that informs a clear map for understanding the EB theories and their applications in healthcare design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis research guide for healthcare design helps students, academics, designers and architects reconsider how to create environments that support patients’ healing and well-being whilst considering efficiency and safety.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45600422494446,"sku":"9781032010755","price":223.55,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/environment-behavior-studies-for-healthcare-design-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
