    Servicescape refers to the use of physical evidence to design service environments. There were several key uses of servicescape in our case. Here ambient conditions come into play such as room temperature and music. Some seemingly negative servicescape experiences could include when the father was sitting in the waiting room with the T.V. muted and all he could hear was the sounds of a screaming woman in labor from the next room. When the fourth floor room was small, dingy, and dirty and the staff was not prepared to deal with the situation, or when the Grower Room had inadequate supplies and blankets would all be considered negative servicescape experiences. On the other hand, some positive servicescape experiences were when the nurses took photos of the baby and taped them to the mother's bed post so she could look at them, when the babies received quilts from Quilters by the Sea, and when the nurses made signs for each of the babies. These are all servicescape examples that either contributed negatively or positively to the service experience.…

    In recent years, researchers begin to study the influence of the firm’s environment on Consumer Behaviour because the significance of the environment has become prominent in service marketing (Gilboa, S and Rafaeli,A, 2003) . The majority of this work has focussed on the results of the physical attributes of the customers’ external environment, or as Kotler (1974) referred to it as ‘atmospherics’. The effects of servicescapes on customers and employees are widely underappreciated and underutilized. Managers frequently change physical surroundings without taking into account the impact the design changes will, or could have, on customers and employees.…

    The servicescape affects both the employees and customer’s behaviour. There are several dimensions that affect behaviour and emotion according to Bitner (1992) These are ambient conditions, space/layout, signs, symbols and artefacts.
