VARICOLORED WALLS
AID VET PATIENTS
•
OAKLAND, Cal. (UP)—Hospit
al rooms with interchangeable
wall coverings arc? giving color
relief to bed-ridden patients at
the veterans hospital here.
Soothing combinations of soft
green, blue, peach and “sunny”
yellow have replaced the deadly
monotony of white walls for the
veterans.
The hospital staff fitted out a
23-room ward with chintz drapes
made to be easily movable from
one room to another.The cornice
boards were painted blending:
colors to harmonize with the var
ious drape colors.
So now the veteran in his bed
can see a new room every v, eek,
instead of having the same old
solid white walls to stare at.
Upholstered easy chairs were
chosen for each room giving “an
air of caual comfort" instead of
the cold formality usually found
in hospitals. The color therapy
program was financed by contri
butions from American Legion
Posts, Ladies of the Moose and
the Lades Auxiliiary of the Jew
ish War Veterans.
