'This study gives us a snapshot of different dimensions related to being in hospital and how they can affect recovery,' said Dr. Shail Rawal, physician at Toronto Western Hospital and lead author of the study. 'The results suggest that enhancing our patient-centered healing environment through initiatives that address these issues may go a long way in improving care. And there are gains that can be made without much pain.'
