OBJECTIVE
Evaluate the acceptability and feasibility and explore the potential health impacts of a hospital-based herb and vegetable garden.
METHODS
Mixed-method program evaluation assessed dietetic and food service staff health, well-being, and garden engagement. Surveys were administered at baseline and follow-up (6 months). Key informant interviews (n = 6) were conducted at 6 months to evaluate program feasibility.
RESULTS
There was good acceptance and engagement with the garden, with 18 participants volunteering to maintain the garden. Key informant interviews identified workforce, leadership, and garden design engagement factors. Participants also noted several psychosocial benefits.
CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS
A hospital-based garden for staff is feasible if programmatic improvements are addressed. More robust evaluations considering challenges with measuring key outcomes with survey methodology and extended periods are warranted.
目的
评估以医院为基础的草药和蔬菜园的可接受性和可行性，并探讨其对健康的潜在影响。
方法
采用混合方法进行项目评估，评估饮食和食品服务工作人员的健康、幸福感以及对菜园的参与度。在基线和随访（6个月）时进行调查。在6个月时进行了关键信息人访谈（n = 6）以评估项目的可行性。
结果
菜园获得了良好的接受度和参与度，有18名参与者自愿维护菜园。关键信息人访谈确定了劳动力、领导力和菜园设计方面的参与因素。参与者还提到了一些心理社会益处。
结论与启示
如果对项目进行改进，以医院为基础的员工菜园是可行的。有必要进行更有力的评估，考虑到用调查方法测量关键结果的挑战以及更长的时间周期。
