A RESEARCH-BASED DESIGN METHOD FOR HEALTHCARE FACILITIES

Evidence-based design enables interior designers, architects, and their clients to optimize design decisions via a process of gathering, evaluating, and applying current best evidence from research and practice. Written by an expert practitioner and endorsed by the American Society of Interior Designers, this book guides readers through a four-step, cross-disciplinary design methodology that fosters healing, quality performance, and safety in the design of the healthcare environment:

- Step 1,"Gather Qualitative and Quantitative Intelligence," outlines how an evidence-based practice team is organized and gathers, interprets, and applies data
- Step 2,"Mapping Strategic, Cultural, and Research Goals,"suggests steps that identify the right project drivers needed to inform an accountable design process
- Step 3,"Hypothesize Outcomes, Innovate, and Implement Translational Design Research," discusses how to bring clarity, specificity, and focus to a design research study, particularly when the design is innovative
- Step 4,"Measure and Share Outcomes," addresses the measurement and sharing of a project's lessons

Responding to the growing need among hospitals for evidence-based design solutions, this four-step process will provide a valuable blueprint for healthcare design that directly impacts healthy outcomes.

In addition, case studies showcase nine of the best contemporary healthcare facilities designed based on sound evidence, including Massachusetts General Ambulatory Practice of the Future, Boston; Weill Cornell Medical College/Weill Greenberg Center, New York City; Dublin Methodist Hospital, OhioHealth, Dublin, Ohio; and PeaceHealth's Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend, Springfield, Oregon.

Evidence-Based Healthcare Design is indispensable for use at the start of a healthcare project, giving interior designers, architects, and facility managers an evidence-based framework that fosters innovation, inspires collaboration, and promotes health.
