30、mber 2011)xvi 2013 CSA Group Canadian health care facilitiesFebruary 20134.2.2.2 Environment of care components shall be addressed in the functional program (see Clause 5.1.6).4.2.2.3 To promote a safe and effective environment of care, the HCF should be designed to achieve the following objectives:

31、(a) reduced stress for patients and their families, visitors, and staff;(b) maintenance of dignity, confidentiality, respect, and comfort at all levels;(c) clustering of related services, to minimize transfers or walking between services;(d) sensitivity to individual needs;(e) universal access for a

32、ll persons (see Clause 4.3);(f) appropriate gender segregation;(g) standardization of area design, furniture, fittings, and equipment where applicable to reduce the possibility of staff errors;(h) reduction of noise;(i) sensitivity to the cultural beliefs and expectations of the expected patients wh

33、ere appropriate (e.g., selection of colours or materials that are associated with healing); and(j) promotion of a healing environment through design and choice of materials for interior furnishings and finishes.Note: Research and evidence-based materials, whenever available, should be reviewed to su

34、pport these goals. Design should make every effort to enhance the performance and productivity of the staff in order to promote a safe environment of care. The building and interior planning should be designed to create an efficient and high-quality patient environment, which is supportive of the de

35、livery of clinical services, patient well-being, comfort, and patient dignity. Furnishings, fittings, and finishes should be appropriate to the architecture and the functions being performed and items should be coordinated to fit and work with each other as needed.4.3 Accessibility4.3.1 General4.3.1

36、.1 The HCF shall be planned and designed to produce an environment that facilitates the patients access to receiving care and the caregivers capacity to provide appropriate and effective care. The HCF shall be designed so that people of all abilities are able, without modification to their normal co

37、nduct, to access the services, work in the facility, use the facility, or assist staff in accomplishing their work.Notes: (1) Accessibility includes(a) design intended to minimize barriers for persons with various disabilities;(b) consideration of the physical, cognitive, social and emotional capabi

38、lities, limitations, needs, and wants of all people who will use, work in, or visit the HCF;(c) provision of effective and appropriate aids to wayfinding;(d) arrangement of services to minimize patient travel from outside the HCF and between destinations within the HCF;(e) organization of staff work

39、flow and provision of supplies to meet the needs of all patients;(f) facilitation of family support; and(g) information and communications.(2) Accessibility addresses not only the primary needs of persons with disabilities, but any supporting elements that a person might require, such as mobility de

40、vices, handlers, or assistive devices.(3) Patients or staff who encounter a barrier in accessing or providing care can experience increased stress levels, which can have a negative impact on clinical outcomes. All effort should be made to reduce or remove such barriers.(4) In designing for accessibi

41、lity in the HCF, building codes should be considered as representing minimum requirements only. Building codes do not capture the needs of all users in the health care setting.(5) Accessibility also addresses the barriers in use of the HCF and equipment such as wayfinding systems and transfer onto e

42、xamination equipment.19(Replaces p. 19, September 2011)Z8000-11 2013 CSA GroupFebruary 20134.3.1.2 The HCF shall be designed so that staff can safely assist and serve patients of all abilities, including the accommodation of assistive devices and other supporting elements.4.3.1.3 The HCF shall be de

43、signed to adapt to the changing accessibility needs of patients and the possibility that a patient who normally does not have a disability could experience a temporary disability because of impairment due to an illness or to a medical or surgical condition.4.3.1.4 The planning and design of HCFs sha

44、ll comply with CAN/CSA-B651 and applicable requirements for accessibility.Note: Federal, provincial/territorial, and local laws and regulations can apply.4.3.2 Functional requirements4.3.2.1 The HCF shall be designed and constructed so as to minimize barriers to the normal activities of patients and

45、 families, staff, and visitors with disabilities.Note: A barrier can be anything that prevents a person with a disability from fully participating in all aspects of society because of his or her disability, including a physical barrier, an information or communication barrier, an attitudinal barrier

46、, a technological barrier, or a policy or practice obstacle.4.3.2.2 The HCF design should minimize hazards and the adverse consequences of accidental or unintended actions for all occupants.4.3.2.3 The planning process shall include a procedure to identify and resolve possible conflicts between the

47、accessibility needs of different user groups.Note: In some situations, a design solution intended to help one user group can inadvertently create a barrier for another group.4.3.2.4 The HCF and all of its components should be simple and intuitive regardless of the users experience, knowledge, langua

48、ge skills, or current concentration level. The HCF should be able to be used efficiently and comfortably and with a minimum of fatigue by all users, regardless of ability.4.3.2.5 All patient-occupied spaces should be designed for accessibility and ease of assistance by clinical staff. Patient care e

49、quipment should allow for approach, reach, manipulation, and use regardless of the patients body size, posture, or mobility.Note: The design should take into account the need for possible variations in design features for accessibility, depending on the function of the space or department, or because of staff requirements in terms of assistance levels required by patients.4.3.3 Reconciliation of competing principlesUnless another health care principle can be sho
