Supporting patient centred experiences

Seek to improve patient spaces by creating healing environments (e.g. wards, break out rooms, relatives accommodation, bathroom facilities, ambulatory care, overnight accommodation and surgical spaces).
Introduce new or improved equipment and services, which enhance the patient experience and recognise the importance of relative wellbeing (e.g. reduce waiting times, make a process less painful/more comfortable, improve admission/discharge times, speed up recovery/treatment and reduce return visits to hospital). We are particularly interested in applications relating to mental health, frailty and end of life care.
Promote positive patient experiences which support mental wellbeing, such as distraction and holistic interventions including art therapy and complimentary therapies.
