Really interesting article about new trends in medical space regarding their design/build. ⚕ 🏥 💉 💊 My major takeaways are: -Design/Build is the preferred method: It is important to design built-in contingencies, as priorities may change. The conversations between engineers, architects and owners should start early on in the process of building a new facility". You should include the GC too!!!! -Think about the staff: "Designers should consider the impact a building can have on the staff, he said, including whether there is nice lighting, comfortable chairs and good food options." -Think about the patients and who they are: "Geriatric patients shouldn't have to walk a significant distance from a doctor’s office to a lab, just to return for the results" -Consider where your patients are: "More established providers are cutting down patients’ drive times by bringing care closer to households in the suburbs, with hopes of providing more preventive care that will keep patients out of the hospital." -Consider who you're working with: "Architects and designers have to “reach across the aisle” to work with the community and create spaces that will foster human connection and create better outcomes"
