The overall success of a healthcare project is related to the quality of prior planning. Healthcare facility design requires a detailed understanding of the need for a project, as well as the context within which it will be built. This underscores the critical importance of a Functional Program.
We know that design is problem solving and the best problem solvers know what questions to ask. With this in mind, The Center for Health Design has developed a functional program Process Guide to facilitate a program that accurately reflects the project owner’s main goals and objectives to facilitate decision making throughout the entire design and construction process. This webinar will highlight how to use our tool and how it can enable design teams to enhance communication, encourage innovation, and highlight both quality and quantity.

Many attendees of The Center for Health Design’s webinars have inquired about IDCEC approval so they can earn ASID, IIDA, and IDS CEU’s. We have looked into this and unfortunately, the cost to upload courses to IDCEC is simply too high at this time. You can still earn credit for attending our webinars by requesting a verification certificate. As of July 9, 2020, The Center for Health Design requires a CEU management fee for verification certificates for all webinars and EBD Journal Clubs. Please contact Natalie Gonzalez, Project Manager, ngonzalez@healthdesign.org.
