Insights & Solutions

For years, the Stantec team has made hands-on, life-sized collaboration a key phase in developing designs, inviting professionals and end users to explore and give feedback to design ideas in real time. Recently, their design experts explored an experimental design process that combines typical analog mockup with the power of generative AI. This webinar will share their process and explore application of this design concept for two care spaces focused on behavioral health. See how this approach improves the quality and accuracy of the design, is fast and realistic, builds consensus, deepens stakeholder engagement, and democratizes the design process!  

This webinar will describe the design process of this unique project, merging the behavioral health expertise of BWBR with the local leadership of BCRA, working together with the Washington Department of Social and Health Services. See how they defined and developed a new model of care for community-based treatment for individuals involuntarily committed by a civil court order for inpatient mental health treatment. Explore the benefits of community-based treatment, lessons learned (and applied) after 12 months of occupancy at the first facility completed, and gain insights gathered from surveying facility staff on successes and opportunities that can be applied in the three buildings still under construction. 

This webinar will describe the team’s approach to adaptive reuse, repurposing vacant retail space to provide direct health benefits for the patients, families and staff who access the facility and live within the neighborhood. Presenters will share their toolset to gather community input regarding needs and culture and offer considerations for projects seeking to become a Federally Qualified Health Center.  

Join the two founders of Cornerstone for a discussion about the current challenges in healthcare and their thoughts for a path forward. They’ll discuss an aspirational model for a new approach, connect how whole health is essential to public health, and share examples of how this model has been applied (and been successful) in various case study settings. See how a systems approach to healthcare is essential to radical and productive change and can usher in a new era of health and wellness.  

This webinar will tell the story of the Parramore community and its revitalization efforts guided by 10 Healthy Community Design (HCD) Principals and will provide an overview of the community engagement process, community vision, status of project implementation with lessons learned, and new tools available for addressing health and social equity issues. Presenters will offer creative, practical solutions that can preserve, revive, and connect a neighborhood’s health and wellness to the city at large.  

In this webinar hear what happened when two of the industry’s leading healthcare design researchers teamed up with senior leaders in Project Planning and Nursing from Indiana University Health Adult Academic Health Center to take their design decision-making to the next level. They’ll share their highly-collaborative design and evaluation process along with the unique patient room design insights they uncovered.

This webinar will highlight design solutions on both the departmental and facility scale, and through case study examples, identify key strategies to promote staff-centered design.
