The Healing Garden at Baltimore Washington Medical Center’s Tate Cancer Center is a serene, peaceful and beautifully landscaped spot that hospital patients, visitors and employees enjoy year round. The 8,000 square foot garden features brilliant flowers, several hillside gardens, a winding stream, benches and a rectangular reflecting pool. The garden also features hundreds of bricks, inscribed with names of friends and loved ones. Patients and their families can spend time in the garden while being treated at the center, enjoying the healing qualities of the prevalent water features within the space. The Infusion Therapy rooms overlook the healing garden through expansive windows, allowing patients indoors to still enjoy the restorative qualities of the garden.
