Edenization

Since the original research that marked its inception, descriptive accounts of results of "Edenization" (or "the EA") in various facilities suggest that its endorsed changes in nursing home culture have a positive impact on residents' quality of life (Barba, Tesh, & Courts, 2002).

They wanted the end of oppression, the end of tyranny, the end of the sword, work for the man, instruction for the child, social gentleness for the woman, liberty, equality, fraternity, bread for all, the idea for all, the Edenization of the world, and progress; and this holy, good, and sweet thing called progress, they, driven to exasperation, claimed terribly with upraised weapons and curses.
