Area of Science:

  • Environmental Health
  • Occupational Health
  • Healthcare Design

Background:

  • Long-term care (LTC) facilities face significant employee burnout and attrition.
  • Limited guidance exists for LTC owners on creating health-promoting physical work environments.
  • Well-designed environments can mitigate these issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify specific health-promoting design strategies for LTC physical work environments.
  • To provide guidance for LTC facility owners and operators.
  • To address the knowledge gap in this area.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesized information from healthy-building standards, LTC design guidelines, academic studies, and expert commentaries.
  • Conducted a three-phase review to identify and analyze health-supportive strategies.
  • Focused on space types and design characteristics relevant to LTC.

Main Results:

  • Identified five specific space types supportive of employee health and well-being.
  • Identified 21 design characteristics relevant to LTC physical work environments.
  • These elements are considered health-supportive for staff.

Conclusions:

  • Implementing these health-promoting design strategies in new or renovated LTC facilities is recommended.
  • Benefits include improved employee mental and physical health, reduced burnout, and lower turnover.
  • These strategies are crucial for addressing the LTC staffing crisis.
