Worked example
Imagine a consultant whose camera frames a frequently used doorway and a bright window, distracting both the worker and callers.
Rotate the desk toward a quiet wall, then check the camera frame and face lighting. Keep the doorway route open and avoid placing a lamp where it reflects in the screen.
How to test it
Record a short call test in daylight and after dark.
Apply it to this space
- Layout
- Locate the workroom behind clinical rooms with a route to supplies that avoids the waiting area.
- Detail
- Provide task lighting, lockable storage for records, and a clear work surface for shared handover.
- Trade-off
- A larger staff room improves recovery space but reduces clinical area.
- Check speech privacy from public rooms
- Test workstation reach and storage access
