Short description

In this project, we explore the relationship between the design of the intensive care room, the quality of care, and the work environment and well-being of the staff. The aim of the project is to generate knowledge that can lead to well-founded improvements and decision-making in the design of future intensive care units. Intensive care not only requires high-quality medical care but also a functional built environment where care can be provided in a safe and secure manner. The project is a step towards better understanding the complex factors that influence the design of care environments and their direct and indirect consequences for various stakeholders.
