Insights & Solutions

This webinar offers a unique opportunity to hear about the state of the industry on this issue from the perspective of the associations that make up our industry.  Hear their perspective on where we’ve come and where we’ve yet to go. Leaders from national organizations representing the healthcare design industry will share their insights on inroads made by their respective organizations (and the professions that they represent) and identify the next steps the professions can take collectively to move the needle forward. This conversation will explore the many opportunities available to leverage that collective power in the pursuit of diversity, equity and inclusion. 

This webinar will highlight the interior design considerations and subsequent design decisions for Children’s Minnesota to meet the surging demand for pediatric mental health services. To ensure the new space met the specific needs of patients and their families, the design team consulted with the Children’s Youth Advisory Committee, a group comprised of patients aged 10 to 18. Come hear their story.

Join this webinar’s distinguished, multi-disciplinary team as they share design strategies, the latest developments of the care model, and an early look at how this new model is working. Attendees will identify how this approach may be replicable to advance better mental health care in other arenas.

Clinical staff in healthcare environments, and nurses in particular, have long been required to care for patients at the expense of their own well-being. Post-pandemic, they continually demonstrate that they are overwhelmed, experience emotional exhaustion and burn out, and report depersonalization and perceptions of lack of personal accomplishment.

This webinar highlights the case study of Baptist Health Care of Pensacola and the design of their new 57-acre campus. Presenters will discuss how this integrated design team approached prefabrication of the building envelope, MEP systems, and interior components. They’ll detail the benefits and risks of prefabrication, how the process reduced the carbon footprint, and how owners can truly benefit from the added coordination. Finally, the team will discuss how they proactively communicated to eliminate pitfalls and costly design changes that come from conventional construction methods through prefabrication.  

For the past hundred years, prefabrication has helped to enhance cost-effectiveness and expedite construction timelines, but it isn’t enough. This webinar will provide an update on the current market status for healthcare prefabrication projects and projections for the next decade. Attendees will see proven case study findings from multiple completed productized healthcare projects, and the impact prefabrication can have on cost and sustainability.  

This webinar will address how we as programmers, designers, and planners can influence inclusive healthcare environment that serves everyone. If health disparities are to be addressed holistically and universally, then healthcare design will be an important component of that shift. For clients that are serving underserved regions, whether with the construction of new facilities or the renovation of existing buildings on campus, we owe it to all shareholders to understand the issues of inclusive architecture, and to help them set, reach and exceed goals for meeting the needs of patients and families that traditionally do not have their healthcare needs met.
