CM13D8 - Future Think: The 21ST Century Hospital
This session by two world recognized healthcare architects and a leader in sustainable healthcare consulting will feature a new generation of inspiring hospitals and other healthcare facilities from around the world. Together, they make the case that a new pattern language of 21st century healthcare design is emerging: intrinsically human-focused, restorative, regenerative and resilient, these projects embrace a health-based approach to design, construction and operations and recognize health consequences related to water, energy, and materials dependencies on the building, community, and global scales. A spotlight on the Nanaimo General Hospital's new emergency department will reveal the compelling benefits of a radical approach to daylight, six months after occupancy, highlighting experiences of staff and patients in their own words. This profound reset of healthcare design challenges current assumptions about basis of design and charts a roadmap for the healthcare sector to create conditions of health and wellness for all. Come see what the future looks like!
