Description:

Hospitals aren’t usually known for comfort — but could bringing nature inside actually help us heal faster? Public health expert Dr. Jay Maddock joins The Excerpt’s Dana Taylor to explain how biophilic design — from leafy views to nature sounds — is changing the way we think about patient recovery, burnout, and even the immune system. From fake plants to rooftop gardens, it turns out a dose of greenery might be just what the doctor ordered.
