Located at the threshold of Legacy
Emanuel Medical Center's second fl oor
Family Birth Center in Portland, Oregon is
A Nature Place, a therapeutic space where
laboring mothers rock in chairs and new
siblings gather with expanded families,
surrounded by green.
The space was built four years ago to
double as a therapeutic garden and re-
search site, where scientists and physicians
have worked to better understand the role
gardens can play in creating better births
— and birthing experiences — for labor-
ing mothers, their families and support
systems.
Learnings from this project, a
postpartum study in particular, are the sub-
ject of an editorial recently published in the
Journal of Perinatal and Neonatal Nursing,
and authored by team leaders Roger Ulrich,
Ph.D. and Serene Perkins, M.D. Legacy's
horticultural therapist Teresia Hazen, who
has coordinated the project, said at the
outset the team was eager to see laboring
mothers — as well as their families — ben-
efi t from the well-documented stress-re-
ducing benefi ts nature brings. Learn more
