Our vision of Health for a Better World includes implementing initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint and promote sustainability. A groundbreaking analysis by the American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE) and Providence St. Peter Hospital in Olympia, Wash. exemplifies the technical and financial feasibility of electrifying thermal loads in existing hospital buildings. ▶️ Learn more about this detailed case study: http://ms.spr.ly/6048okytu #SustainableHealthcare #HealthcareInnovation #CleanEnergy #FutureOfHealthcare #HealthForABetterWorld

Do the little things matter? There is new evidence to suggest that the way a room is lit can improve our mood, and in the realms of healthcare it can actually improve our recovery. 💫 The design and management of environmental spaces in healthcare settings play a crucial role in shaping patient health outcomes. Factors such as, air quality, noise control, spatial organization, access to nature, and aesthetic elements all contribute to patient recovery and well-being. As the body of evidence grows, healthcare providers and architects are increasingly prioritizing the creation of healing environments that optimize patient health. Future research should continue to explore the intersection between environmental design and healthcare, with a particular focus on creating adaptable, patient-centered spaces that respond to the needs of diverse patient populations. #innovation #patientsafety Jordan.wood@hepacart.co.uk #sunbeltrentals @Craigsexton@sunbeltrentals.co.uk

Healthy buildings = healthy people! 🗨️ Morten Helveg Petersen: ‘Healthy buildings are important because they have positive benefits in terms of learning, in terms of health, and quality of life in general. We now have to ensure implementation of our Buildings directive which includes health in buildings We have to ensure that member states transpose and implement this directive.’ #HealthyBuildingsBarometer #HealthyBuildings #EPBD

My new artical highlights the impotance of the environmental considerations into the healthcare systems design, which is lead to promoting population health, enhancing sustainability, and addressing health inequities. #EnvironmentalConsiderations #HealthcareDesign #PopulationHealth #Sustainability #HealthInequities #HealthcareSystems #EnvironmentalHealth #PublicHealth #DesignThinking #HealthcareEquity

🌍 Project Spotlight: CommonSpirit Health & Earth Savers 🌍 We’re excited to share our project spotlight with CommonSpirit Health on a national LED lighting retrofit project! By upgrading lighting across 142 facilities, we’ve helped boost energy efficiency, cut costs, and improve lighting quality, all while minimizing disruptions to healthcare services. This collaboration underscores our commitment to sustainable solutions that support healthcare excellence.

An article written by Post-Carbon Research Centre Director Priyadarsini Rajagopalan, Advisory Board member Stefano Scalzo GAICD and Shilpi Tewari on Decarbonizing healthcare buildings published in The Health Advocate Magazine. This article provides some insights on designing and assessing healthcare buildings, reusing/refurbishing existing buildings and the importance of building resilience. https://lnkd.in/gdNdFEsz Many thanks to HEAL National Research Network, Sotiris Vardoulakis and Rebecca Haddock for this opportunity.

Optimizing health care spaces starts with us, and we can now lean on ASHE’s new Core Competency Framework for health care facilities professionals. It’s a great place to locate and discover resources, and assess and improve your skillset. Take some time during National Health Care Facilities and Engineering Week to explore the Framework: https://lnkd.in/g_ZYy-_7 #CelebrateFE

"Imagine a healthcare unit that modifies lighting, temperature, and sound to optimise patient recovery based on specific care needs and the time of day. Or imagine an office that recognises its occupant’s moods and responds by creating a more calming atmosphere, or adjusts the environment to promote wellbeing, demonstrating empathy and improving care." Does this remind you of a scene from a sci-fi movie? 🌌 Principal research consultant Eirini Tsouknida discusses the hashtag #sentientbuildings research program in her latest insight 'What if our buildings could talk?'.
