Spur Satisfaction in Healthcare Facilitates with Colors

Altus has a portfolio of nine different mobile workstation surface colors because of the substantial benefits they provide.

Different colors have been proven to have different psychological effects.

Choosing the right color for your healthcare facility can boost clinician productivity and even increase clinician and patient satisfaction. Healthcare spaces today are being designed to create environments that help people feel centered and calm.

Altus suggests incorporating natural wood grains to add an element of nature for a calming effect and warm shades for promoting energy, alertness, and optimism.

However, it’s advised to not go overboard on painting every wall, furniture piece or workstation a bold color, as the color could turn into a distraction. Incorporate these subtle color details in workstation surfaces instead.
