The results from this redesign and from others like it were

no less than amazing. Sedation rates dropped from 80% to

fractions of one percent. But to Doug, the human stories

behind the numbers are just as important.

While visiting the pirate-themed scanner, Doug talked to the

parents of a little girl about the room’s piña colada scented

aroma, something they were getting a kick out of. The little girl

came up to the mom and tugged at her shirt. “Can we come

back tomorrow?” she asked.

forward to. By using their POV as a way to reframe the problem,

his team was able to change the world.
