Fresh Flowers for Medical Offices: The Prescription for Better Patient Experience
Transform your practice with the healing power of fresh florals
What the Research Reveals
Medical environments can be stressful, but fresh flowers offer a scientifically-proven solution. Texas A&M University research shows that workers' idea generation, creative performance and problem solving skills improve substantially in workplace environments that include flowers and plants. For healthcare practices, this means:
Calmer patients who feel more at ease during visits
Sharper medical staff who perform better in floral environments
Reduced anxiety in waiting areas
But What About Allergies?
The #1 concern we hear: "Won't flowers trigger patient allergies?"
The good news: there are allergy-friendly options that still deliver all the benefits. Some of our favorite low-pollen flowers include roses (many are also grown without scent), hydrangeas, tulips and orchids. Low-scent flowers include roses (many varieties are fragrance-free), Carnations & Orchids. Of course, there are always high-quality silk arrangements and live plants (peace lilies, snake plants, pothos) as well.
