2020 Medical Design Forum: Caring for People Caring for the Planet
This year’s Medical Design Forum presents two days of interdisciplinary presentations, design case studies and engaging conversations about how to address the magnitude of the climate crisis while meeting regulatory requirements aimed at ensuring a safe and healthy environment for patients. What are the obstacles to achieving sustainability goals in healthcare environments, and how can design teams, owners, providers and communities respond? What are the policies and processes that support high performance building strategies? What is driving innovation in community healthcare, rural communities, and urban organizations right now, and what can we expect next? We invite AEC and healthcare professionals to join us in exploring actionable solutions for better care–for people and the planet.
