Imagine you are the health care administrator who has been reviewing the architect’s recommendations for toilet placement within the new wing of the hospital. The architect has provided you with four toilet placement options. The options are outboard, inboard, same-handed, or nested layout. It is important to understand the advantages and disadvantages of each recommendation prior to providing your opinion of the placement to the architects.

On the worksheet, you should: 1. Describe the evidence-based design principle for each layout. 2. Describe the impact on the stakeholders’ experience with each placement (e.g., patients, medical staff, hospital staff, family, and visitors).
