Innovations in Healthcare Design What are the economic and medical trends affecting healthcare design today? How does patient-focused care relate to the design of facilities? What design elements and policy factors contribute to a healing environment? Is there research that connects design to wellness? Which healthcare projects are good examples of therapeutic design? If you're involved in the planning and design of new or renovated healthcare facilities, you need to know the answers to these questions. For it is the ability to create an environment that positively affects therapeutic outcomes and improves staff satisfaction that will set you apart in today's competitive healthcare market. Innovations in Healthcare Design is a collection of edited presentations by design and health pioneers, culled from the first five years of the influential Symposium on Healthcare Design. The Symposium, founded in 1986 to explore how the design of the physical environment positively affects the quality of healthcare, has a speaker roster that reads like the Who's Who in Healthcare Design. And this book is the best of the best. You won't find a gathering of minds like this anywhere else in print. A Postscript written by Wayne Ruga, the leading healthcare design industry advocate, eloquently sums up the importance of design and proposes some next steps for the industry to move forward. Mr. Ruga, AIA, IIDA, Allied Member ASID, the founder of the Symposium, has won the respect of healthcare designers, executives, and practitioners with his earnest crusade for improved healthcare facilities around the world. Whatever your specialty in today's booming health industry -- architect, interior designer, product designer, manufacturer, sales representative, healthcare executive, practitioner, or educator -- you'll find indispensable information in this book on programming, planning, and designing facilities to meet the highest quality standards possible. This collection of ideas and models from which the best and most cost-effective healthcare facilities will be built is conveniently organized into five areas; past and future trends, the patient experience, design impact, new design technologies, and project case studies. You'll get the latest information on healthcare changes; design research; color, music, and art for health; healing environments; and human-centered design. If you're looking for nitty-gritty practical applications, turn to the case studies. Presented by such prominent healthcare design professionals as Jain Malkin, Thomas Payette, and Derek Parker, these diverse case studies explore real-life design solutions in acute care, ambulatory care, long-term care, medical offices, and pediatric areas. Creating healthcare environments that contribute to healing is important work. If you plan to be part of this movement, you can't afford to be without this book.
