SPECIAL

An adaptable open
bathroom concept
is used in Patient
Room 2020, with a
reconfigurable sliding
door system used to
section it off from
the patient room.

When renderings of Patient
Room 2020, an arguably stark
and very modern space, were
first published, reactions from
the healthcare design industry
were immediate and ran the
gamut-some loved it, some
hated it. Were you expecting this
type of reaction?
One of my favorite quotes is by Ivan
Illich: "If you want to change society,
you have to tell an alternative story."
In my opinion, that is one of the most
impactful things we accomplished
with Patient Room 2020. There was
definitely an intention to be provocative, and we fully expected dissent along with excitement.
It achieved the purpose of getting people's attention in this
very noisy world. Now that we have your attention, let's do
something different to solve the problem.
You've since built out Patient Room 2020 in New York
and have referred to it as proving ground, where the
design can be continually developed. How has the
process progressed?

We have been so fortunate to have many different groups come into the space and provide their
feedback. Two of the groups that we're most excited
about are patients and nurses. Last fall, we had a
focus group with Planetree's Patient and Family Advisory Council (PFAC) and got some great comments
about things that work well and things that could be
improved. In the spring, we conducted an innovation
workshop with a group of nurses from a New York
area hospital.
What are some examples of feedback you
heard?
The Planetree PFAC helped us understand a lot more
about what a patient needs at the bedside. They loved
the concept of the patient companion unit [a touchscreen tablet integrated into an overbed table] but felt
that it could be optimized with more room for storage,
trash, and food trays while using the electronic side.
They also talked about the need to have some type
of pull-down seat, either off the bed or on the wall,
for physicians to sit down at the bedside and discuss
their care plan. The nurses are a wealth of good
ideas, but some key ones include helpful apps on
the caregiver dashboard, smart flooring that senses
