This session enables attendees to:
•Assess the psychological impact of spaces in regard to the feelings and behavior of patient's, family, and staff.
•Identify issues in the environment that are causative factors of existing problems in the management and operations of their health care facilities.
•State how to apply basic Feng Shui principles to create spaces that are more "natural" and "Psychologically Green".
