Threads of time and space weave human life, the pattern so weaved dictates its every aspect. If the effect of space on human mind and spirit is so intense then why not mould it to heal people. This presentation was the foundation of the graduation project of my MDes at NIFT Mumbai. It deals with the nuances of health care design unravelling the ways in which environment can act as a catalyst in the healing process.
PART 1

Managing hospital noise and creating a quieter environment for patients is a challenge that’s now being measured against HCAHPS scores and tied to Medicare reimbursements. It’s a factor that affects both patient satisfaction and outcomes as well as staff satisfaction and performance. Susan Mazer looks at the cultural factors behind noise and offers some solutions for managing noise in hospitals.

AN EMPIRICAL STUDY ON FACTORS INFLUENCING THEPATIENTS SATISFACTION TOWARDS HE...IAEME Publication
Healthcare is one of India’s largest sectors, in terms of revenue and employment, and one can well witness the sector to expand rapidly. With the fast growing purchasing power, Indian patients are willing to pay more to avail health care services of international standard. In the era of globalization and heightened competition, it has been observed that delivery of service is imperative for Indian healthcare providers to satisfy their indoor as well as outdoor patients. Hence, it is essential to be aware of how the patients and patient parties evaluate the health care service. Such an understanding facilitates hospital administration to enhance quality of service and satisfy patients to a great extent as well.

Title: Organizational Structure and Functions
Common services or functions they can share
Blood banks; same blood banks can be used, in GAH, and in community clinic.
The pharmacy can also be one area that will be shared because they will need to bring the medicines that will be required (DeCoske, Tryon & White, 2011).
Operating rooms can also be shared between both sectors, and these will save money and resources.
Explain the organizational relationships between the structure blocks
Horizontal linkages; in these linkages, every person in the organization has an equal relationship (Talbot & Verrinder, 2010).
They are most needed when there is a need for coordination that is close in all the organization segments.
Vertical linkages; these linkages tie subordinates and supervisors together.
The supervisor is in charge of evaluating and providing guidance towards any improvement necessary.
How (if appropriate) will you integrate the services of physicians whose specialty is in geriatric treatment within the GAH /CC?
Geriatrics is a specialty that has its focus on older adults' health care with aim of promoting their health (Talbot & Verrinder, 2010).
There is no specific age for a patient to be under the care of a geriatric physician.
The first thing will be published on the hospital website about geriatrics. The second thing will be researching the best geriatrics in California.
Define the mission statement for the GAH and Community Clinic
The mission statement for Golden Age Hospital and the Community Clinic is a specialized facility for geriatric and education offers (Andrews, Jelley & Jelley, 2013).
It will also be focused on compassionate delivery of care that is client-cantered to the elderly population and the caregivers.
It is also aimed at expanding services according to the seniors at their residential places.
Prepare a simple organizational diagram, depicting the organizational structure (blocks) of the existing Mission Hospital (MVH), Children’s Hospital (CHOC), and the proposed Golden Age Hospital (GAH), and the community clinic (CC) (Harris, 2015).

What is the recommended hospital size (number of beds)?
Taking into consideration the Orange County and its branches, the elderly population takes about 40 percent of the overall population (Epting, 2011).
This means that out of the people of 122, they represent 48.8.
This data depicts that, on average, Golden Age Hospital is recommended to have fifty beds.

Purpose
Explain the concept of a knowledge worker.
Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
The concept of a knowledge worker
The term “knowledge worker” was first coined by Peter Drucker. Ducker defined knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services (CFI, 2019). He emphasized that due to the high level of productivity and creativity of knowledge worker, that they would be the most valuable assets in the 21st century organization. Professionals that can be referred to as knowledge worker includes engineers, pharmacists, architects, financial analysts, public accountants, physicians, scientists, design thinkers, and lawyers. Furthermore, knowledge workers have a high degree of expertise, experience, education and the primary purpose of their jobs involve the distribution, creation and application of knowledge.

Nursing Informatics
Nursing Informatics is a subset of informatics, specific to the nursing field and the role of the nurse in the healthcare setting. There has been several interpretation of nursing informatics. The American Nurses Association (ANA), identified nursing informatics as a specialty that integrates nursing, science, computer science, and information science to manage and communicate data, information, and knowledge in nursing practice (ANA, 2001, pg.17).

Nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
A nurse leader is one who inspire others to work together to achieve a common goal, for instance enhanced patient care or satisfaction. All nurses are called to nurse leadership, however there are different levels of nurse leadership. Nurse leaders are expected to help the organization to fulfill the organization’s mission, vision, values, and strategies to achieve long-range plans. Nurse leaders part take in policy setting, overseeing quality measures are carried out, accountability for overall quality of patient care delivery, staff satisfaction and organizational outcomes. For a nurse leader as a knowledge worker to be productive in an organization, the nurse leader must understand that knowledge work requires continuous learning on the part of the knowledge worker, but equally continuous teaching on the part of the knowledge worker. Having said that, a knowledge worker nurse leader will depend hugely on evidenced based practice to be productive in a healthcare organization. The use of EBP by knowledge worker nurse leader will require learning and teaching. Most healthcare organizations or hospitals rely on evidenced based.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
