 ==Overview – finishes in the healthcare environment==
   <br />Interior finishes play a vital role in a healthcare facility, as proper wall treatments can contribute to the creation and maintenance of a positive therapeutic environment for patients (Mayer, 2005)
 Building finishes account for a large proportion of the overall cost of constructing a healthcare facility. According to Shohet et al. (2002),    interior finishing and interior construction account for 32% of the initial budget. Maintenance and cleaning of finishes add substantially to the ‘whole-life costs’ of finishes within a hospital or healthcare facility.
 Despite this, finishes are often treated as optional and purely aesthetic components of the building and the spaces within it. When budget constraints are implemented, the finishes are usually the first area to suffer. Institutions will often standardise finishes across a spectrum of rooms/facilities for economy in replacement and/or cleaning regimes.

 Interior finishes, however, play a vital role in the health care environment, and contribute substantially to the delivery of healthcare service and the protection of staff and patients.
-In a study conducted by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) in association with the University of Sheffield and Queen Margaret University College, 2004, the comments from the majority of people who visited hospitals, including staff and patients, included “cold, depressing, dehumanising, Kafkaesque, dirty, smelly, frightening, impersonal, confusing, dull shabby, windowless, grim, stressful…” While the fact that most patients interviewed may have been negative as a result of their being ill, it does highlight a problem of the inhumane and threatening appearance of hospital environments “UNTIL THE GERM THEORY WAS DEVELOPED, (historically) where even more attention should be MORE MEN WERE DYING FROM SMALL paid to creating a caring atmosphere.

 Building finishes are usually seen as a separate and final application to the building structure (Dean, 1996). There are, however, instances where the finish is integral to the structure. These documents therefore include finishes and materials in such cases.

@@ Line 96: / Line 98: @@
 A ceiling in any facility forms the third dimension in any given room area, along with the walls and the floor, and it sometimes separates the roof space from the occupied area below. The manner in which the ceiling is finished will affect not only the acoustics, but also the aesthetics of a room. Certain materials also contribute to the thermal properties of a room.
 [[File:Ceiling.png|thumb|none]]
 Although ceilings are for the most part out of reach of hands and feet of everyday staff and patient traffic, and the microbial burden would seem to be somewhat reduced, airborne dust particles and fine moisture dispersal can still allow pathogens to gather on ceiling surfaces.  The ceiling can therefore have a role to play in infection prevention and control.
