The 1990s saw the emergence of innovative children’s hospitals, featuring imaginative designs that differentiated these facilities from their adult counterparts. Over the last 30 years, much has changed in pediatric design. This webinar will highlight the latest edition of the Hospital ICONs program and will focus on children’s hospitals, then and now. Architectural case studies will present the next generation of children’s healthcare facilities, including new acute care, diagnostic and treatment, and outpatient facilities. The presenters will share important lessons-learned from these ground-breaking children’s hospitals, including project data, interviews and videos with project leaders, architectural photography, and post-occupancy feedback on the projects.

 

Learning Objectives

  • Describe the major trends in pediatric healthcare design over the past 30 years.

  • Recognize opportunities for innovation and family-centered care that may extend to adult facilities.

  • Analyze key room data and square footage requirements for best-in-practice pediatric facilities

  • Develop a perspective on what the future of children’s hospitals, and their corresponding design, may be.

Many attendees of The Center for Health Design’s Webinars have inquired about IDCEC approval so they can earn ASID, IIDA, and IDS CEU’s. We have looked into this and unfortunately, the cost to upload courses to IDCEC is simply too high at this time. You can still earn credit for attending our webinars by requesting a verification certificate. Please contact Natalie Gonzalez, Project Manager, ngonzalez@healthdesign.org
