CGM - CONCLUSION


            To conclude, there was a long evolution that led to the integration of design principles to assist in the treatment of young patients in hospitals around Ottawa. The Special Care Nursery reveals how colour and natural light contribute to the well being of the baby and their parents. The Ronald McDonald Family rooms in the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario gives us insight on how creating areas that include the child’s family, fun activities, open spaces, and the use of interior design can benefit the comfort of the child. Lastly, the Hospital of Ottawa shows us that designing spaces contributes to the overall efficiency of the hospital and would be valuable to be include in the care of young patients. The Hospitals in Ottawa have done a great job in integrating interior design to assist young patients in their treatment and should continue to implement design principles in areas that provide treatment for children in order to develop a strong and positive society.
