However, little is known about the impact of different hospital designs on time spent performing on nursing tasks.MethodsA before-after time motion study was conducted in a former hospital which featured multi-bedded rooms and a new hospital with 100% single-occupancy rooms. Trained observers shadowed nurses during day and evening shifts using an online shadow application distinguishing eleven main categories of nursing tasks (e.g., direct patient care, indirect care, and professional communication). Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics. Tasks performed concurrently (multitasking) are described in terms of (overlapping) duration and frequency.ResultsIn total, 60 and 107 nurses were shadowed for 225 and 450 hours in the former and new hospital, respectively. The top three tasks on which nurses spent most the time in the former and new hospital concerned: direct care 40% versus 40%, training and supervision 27% versus 25%, communication 25% versus 25%, respectively. In the former hospital, nurses performed on average 32.8% of their time on multitasking versus 34.8% in the new hospital.ConclusionsContrary to our expectations, the 100% single-occupancy rooms hospital design hardly affected nursing time spent in nursing tasks and multi-tasking compared to a multi-bedded patient rooms setting.</p>","PeriodicalId":47306,"journal":{"name":"Herd-Health Environments Research & Design Journal","volume":" ","pages":"19375867251330838"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144041165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite anecdotal evidence, few studies have quantified the impacts of wayfinding problems. <b>Methods:</b> This descriptive cross-sectional study used an online questionnaire to gather data from hospital staff in the United States. The questionnaire targeted (1) wayfinding for hospital staff, (2) wayfinding for hospital visitors, (3) the impact of wayfinding problems on staff, and (4) the importance of addressing wayfinding problems. Data from 301 questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive and nonparametric statistics. <b>Results:</b> Staff found it easy to navigate their own departments but more difficult to navigate other departments. Staff's responses indicated that wayfinding was relatively difficult for visitors. Each staff member spent about 30 min per week on helping others with wayfinding. The five locations in which users needed the most assistance were the cafeteria, restrooms, elevators, exits, and main lobby. Staff commonly escorted people to a point from which they could independently reach their destination. Wayfinding difficulties could distract staff from their main duties and cause frustration. Nearly 44% of the participants experienced incivility from users who had become frustrated by wayfinding problems.
