Planetree, a nonprofit organization, was founded in 1978 to provide the public with health and medical information and to improve the quality of patient care. Planetree's 13-bed model medical/surgical unit, located in San Francisco's Pacific Presbyterian Medical Center, opened in July 1985. Its goal is to humanize patient care--to encourage patient and family involvement, personalize the patient-nurse interaction, create an optimal healing environment, provide nutritious and palatable food, maximize communication between professionals and patients, and include arts and entertainment in the healing process. Part One of this article (see Healthcare Forum, May/June 1986) described the unit's departures from the traditional hospital environment, changes in nursing practices, physician involvement, and cost effectiveness.
普莱尼特瑞是一个非营利组织，成立于1978年，旨在为公众提供健康和医疗信息，并提高患者护理质量。普莱尼特瑞拥有13张床位的示范内科/外科病房位于旧金山的太平洋长老会医疗中心，于1985年7月开业。其目标是使患者护理人性化——鼓励患者及其家属参与，使患者与护士的互动个性化，营造最佳的康复环境，提供营养可口的食物，最大限度地促进专业人员与患者之间的沟通，并在康复过程中融入艺术和娱乐元素。本文的第一部分（见《医疗保健论坛》，1986年5/6月）描述了该病房与传统医院环境的不同之处、护理实践的变化、医生的参与情况以及成本效益。
