Abstract

Today, many scientists are conducting studies on influences of natural and arranged environment on the human health and recovery. With regards this issue, they examined garden designs on healthcare institutions, such as hospitals treating particularly different groups of patients, hospice for elderly and rehabilitation centers where mentally and physically disabled people are treated. In this study, efforts were made to determine positive effects of healing gardens on psychological and physical health as well as social life of mentally and physically disabled children treated in rehabilitation centers, elderly residing at hospices and patients treated at hospitals, to address therapeutic effects of those gardens in terms of healthcare services at our country, to advocate the hypothesis “Those gardens have healing effect on children, elderly and patients” and to reach an accumulated “concrete” data of designers in relation with landscape of children’s healing gardens
