Summary:

"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."" "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."--Jacket.
