When the University Medical Center of Princeton was ready to construct a new building in 2014, the medical personnel in charge of the program felt the design of the facility ought to be studied. They made a model room, then let physicians, nurses, patients, and family members leave Post-it notes on how the room could be better configured. Several hundred notes were written, most of them common sense suggestions such as including a couch that can become a bed, large windows for light, and a visible sink so attending personnel would always remember to wash their hands. When the room was tested it found that the patients staying there requested 30% less pain medication. All of the rooms in the new $523 million, 636,000 square-foot hospital have the new room design.
