It is important for the patient with delirium to be placed in a visible room to provide constant monitoring and prevent the patient from wandering or causing harm to themselves. A brightly lit room can increase confusion, and a shared room can further exacerbate the patient's symptoms. A dark and quiet room can also increase confusion and anxiety.
