Technology is the industry that continues to revolutionize cultures and civilization worldwide. It has revolutionized transportation, communication, and now health care. It is now time that technology revolutionizes the way in which people view art and utilize it in the healing process.
Healthcare Art Consulting created Dynamic Digital Art ("DDA") to provide continuous visual stimulation for patients and staff in healing environments. Instead of patients viewing one image during their stay, they are now stimulated with multiple images that meet healing image criteria.
Benefits for Patients
Dynamic Digital Art ("DDA") units allow patients not only to view
365 healing photography images but also allows patients to
view photos of family and memories. This emphasizes
patient and family-centered care in the patient room.
Just as traditional healing images in various mediums (i.e. photography, canvas paintings, limited edition prints, and sculpture) have shown
positive outcomes such as reduced anxiety, stress and blood pressure, Dynamic Digital Art has the capability to do the same.
Currently, research is being conducted in the design and evidence-based design (EBD) community to study the outcomes of digital art and video displays in patient and staff zones within the healing environment.
Benefits for Staff and Volunteers
Health care staff are located in the same facilities day in and day out. Instead of staff viewing one image 24 hours, 7 days a week, 365 days per year, they now work in a
changing environment that is constantly fresh and stimulating.
Incorporating Dynamic Digital Art ("DDA") into patient rooms allows the
opportunity for patient-volunteer interaction.
Benefits for Health Care Administrators
Health care facilities are constantly renovating and updating the "look and feel" of facility interiors. Dynamic Digital Art ("DDA") allows health care administrators to
change artwork without a large outlay of capital.
The
365 DDA healing images are lifetime licensed to the heath care organization and new images may be added to the collection as desired for a nominal fee.
Dynamic Digital Art units are
advancing the use of technology in the healing experience.
Dynamic Digital Art is the innovative artistic solution for health care.
