Healing Environment in Pediatric Cancer Centers by Utilizing Positive Distractions.

In recent years, a broader perspective has viewed the use of therapeutic environments in healthcare, transforming the hospital's environment into an energizing atmosphere that benefits both employees and patients. Scientists found that exposure to natural elements like nature scenes, sunlight, art, calming colors, and soothing sounds significantly sped up healing and created a more relaxed hospital environment. This research emphasized the importance of healthcare settings' interior design in promoting patient well-being through beneficial distractions. The motivation for this investigation came from the need to develop an understanding of positive distractions in the cancer care environment and showed how this understanding could be used to enhance the space experience to promote health and well-being. This research adopted a mixed-methods approach. First, a qualitative method using a critical review of the literature was used to effectively present, analyze, and synthesize literature from diverse sources, followed by a quasi-experimental research method. This research is intended to focus on the attributes of positive distraction as one of the psychosocially and psychologically supportive healthcare design aspects that evoke positive feelings in children's cancer center experiences.
