Therapeutic Evaluation of Regional Mental Health Hospitals’ Gardens in Turkey
Abstract
A scoring table was built according to the three design criteria for way finding, for sensory stimulation, for comfort. With the help of this table, general assessments of regional hospital gardens were made and they were compared with each other according to the existence of these design features. Thus, positive and negative therapeutic characteristics of each hospital garden were stated.
