DESIGN FOR RETIREMENT AND
HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENTS REPORT
The design of specialized healthcare and retirement facilities, driven by the
demographics of an aging population, is a growing area of professional practice.
Therapeutic or healing gardens and green spaces of many kinds are becoming
key elements in the design of hospitals, assisted living facilities and nursing
homes.
The ASLA has a Therapeutic Garden Design Professional Practice
Network (PPN) dedicated to the study and design of outdoor spaces for respite
and healing.
