The University of California-Davis Medical Center is one of a growing number of hospitals that dedicate a time block to creating a relaxing, peaceful environment for patients. Some medical centers, such as Montefiore Hospital in New York City, have a quiet floor around the clock. UC Davis modeled its "quiet time" on a similar program at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago.
