The purpose of this doctoral capstone project was to design and implement sensory modulation rooms for a male adolescent unit and a female adolescent unit within an inpatient psychiatric facility. In order to accomplish this, I collected donated sensory equipment and created a formal procedure/staff training protocol for the sensory modulation rooms to be utilized successfully and safely. Once the sensory modulation rooms were complete, the policies formalized and the staff trained/educated, the adolescent patients began to utilize the sensory equipment within the sensory modulation rooms in high distressed states. The main findings of the research project were a significant decrease in patient distress/arousal levels in high crisis states with use of the sensory modulation rooms. The findings of the research project also showed that patient perceptions of the sensory modulation rooms were mostly positive, whereas, staff perceptions were relatively mixed. Overall, the sensory modulation rooms yielded positive patient outcomes and served as a new form of holistic intervention that is rooted in occupational therapy foundations.
