State-of-the-art hospitals feature private rooms, tree-filled courtyards, fountains, family lounges and more--all in an effort to make patients and visitors more comfortable with their surroundings in a time of stress. A soothing atmosphere doesn't take a complete renovation: Many changes can be made for little investment. Such an environment does take a philosophical commitment by the entire institution, however, and that can't be changed with paint alone.
一流的医院设有私人病房、绿树成荫的庭院、喷泉、家庭休息室等等，所有这些都是为了在压力时期让患者和访客在周围环境中感觉更舒适。营造舒缓的氛围并不需要彻底翻新：只需少量投资就能做出很多改变。然而，这样的环境需要整个机构在理念上做出承诺，而这不是仅靠粉刷就能改变的。
