If the words “prefab” and “modular” construction conjure images in your head of low-quality, assembly line-built boxes with no design aesthetic, think again.

New and evolving prefab solutions provide healthcare architects, designers and providers with vast creative opportunities, customization and flexibility above and beyond what is typically possible – and affordable – in traditional drywall construction. 

Employing modern design and fabrication tools like virtual reality and 3D printing, new prefab processes reduce labor costs – the biggest factor driving demands for value engineering (a.k.a. “cut that amenity, feature or spec level”) – freeing construction dollars for health, safety, wellness and patient-centric design enhancements.

At the same time, healthcare contractors and providers realize faster speed to market, more predictable timelines, better quality control, lower maintenance costs and enhanced sustainability benefits, as well as long-term adaptability to changing space requirements.

A surge in demand for prefab healthcare environment solutions – beyond just headwalls and bathroom pods -- is already knocking. Are you and your organization prepared to answer?

Join today’s leaders and visionaries from the healthcare, design and fabrication sectors as they reveal the challenges, experiences and potential that prefab solutions offer. In this workshop, you’ll engage with faculty and colleagues in interactive scenario breakouts, exchanging ideas and strategies while raising your prefab fluency and readiness.
