Abundant scientific evidence points to the extensive benefits that therapeutic landscapes and nature can have on a patient’s recovery. At Cedars-Sinai, soothing gardens serve as a sanctuary for those in search of physical, mental and spiritual healing. Located throughout the medical center campus, the gardens are an oasis of meditative calm that’s accessible to patients and visitors—as well as physicians and staff—as they recharge and recover.

Cedars-Sinai supporters have made significant gifts to name individual gardens in recognition of the spaces’ transformative power to help people thrive. For instance, the S. Mark Taper Foundation donated $1 million to name the S. Mark Taper Foundation Rabbit Garden, one of Guerin Children’s inpatient unit’s most popular features, which offers whimsical, rabbit-shaped seating and verdant foliage for inpatients and their families to enjoy. Naming opportunities for other gardens remain available—a wonderful chance for donors to invest in wellness and strengthen our community.
