patients to check email, use apps, or listen to music

"So many people think of behavioral healthcare
patients as different from you and me, but they're
not," she says. "We need to think of the things we
wouldn't be able to go without and find a way to
incorporate that." HCD

While more behavioral
healthcare facilities are going
to private bedrooms, others,

And while finding safe and accessible outdoor
areas can be challenging, especially when renovating an existing space to integrate behavioral
health into an acute care facility, Felker says it's
a huge amenity, especially for adolescent and
pediatric populations. For a project at Seattle
Children's Hospital's Psychiatry and Behavioral
Medicine Unit, ZGF incorporated an outdoor
playground and, in a second phase, will add a
second-floor outdoor terrace.

space, whether it's over the lights, sound, temperature, or music.
"The idea is that we want patients to learn how
to manage their emotions and behavior in appropriate ways," Felker says.

device, and then when you come into a behavioral
hospital, that's all taken away from you," she says.
She recognizes that not having the ability to
check email or reach out to friends can be a major
source of stress for patients, but to resolve that,
she says facilities will need to figure out how to
pay for on-site technology, lock down devices,
and maintain privacy and safety for users. For Pine
Rest, she says she's considering a "technology
room" that would be open at specific times for
