The study looked at how patients in a rehabilitation ward spend their time and how the layout of the space around their room can impact their recovery. They found that it's important for patients to have activities outside of rehabilitation time and to move around more during the day. Designing the space to encourage movement and different positions can help patients in their recovery process.
