Does healthcare still work the way we designed it to work? Or is it like a computer with too many apps running in the background? Each of us has our own thoughts about what needs to be reloaded, or quit. At PURPOSEFUL 2021, we will share those thoughts with each other, face-to-face, after a very long time, and exchange everything from great ideas and revelations, to simple tweaks that might make a big difference in delivering care.
Join us at PURPOSEFUL 2021: REBOOTING HEALTHCARE – at last – in-person, outdoors, vaccinated, and voluntarily masked – on Wednesday August 18th at 4:30 in Pasadena. Our annual event will feature refreshments, interactive group participation, moderated discussions, and in-person networking with a diverse panel of owner and provider experts. Let’s all share our collective thoughts and experiences—personal and organizational—and together, spark some new ideas to take us forward in healthcare design and delivery!
Speakers:
Deb Sheehan – Healthcare Core Market Leader, DPR Construction
Gary Dunger – Executive Director, Facilities, Planning, Design & Construction, Cedars-Sinai Health System
William Marsh – Vice President of Real Estate Development, Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles
Karen Costello – Senior Principal, Planning/Design & Development, Hoag Hospital
Learning Objectives:
+ Evaluate how master planning goals, building programs, and renovation solutions can enhance operational flow, staff and patient health, and occupant safety in medical projects.
+ Investigate innovative design and systems solutions that enhance patient care and improve occupant health and safety while reducing healthcare and construction delivery costs. Owners, design professionals, and builders will come away with cost reduction strategies to achieve the following: 1) Maximize the value of the built environment to enhance patient and family care by allocating capital expenditure responsibly; 3) Speed to market, especially at a time where patient census is at an all-time high; and 4) Develop project delivery methods that can flex and adapt to the ever changing demands of healthcare delivery.
+ Apply lessons-learned with healthcare owners to develop strategies that make comprehensive, quality healthcare available to more people and improve the welfare of our communities. Healthcare owners can integrate these lessons learned and strategies into future scopes of work and request for proposals, ensuring they are implemented by design professionals in contractors in the final built environments to benefit the health and safety of patients, caregivers, and staff.
+ Use ideas developed collaboratively in a group setting as design-generators to repurpose existing medical buildings that mitigate hazardous materials, fortify resilience to natural and human impacts, and improve life-safety to occupants while addressing pandemic and post-pandemic healthcare requirements.
