Webinar
September 2024 Webinar

This case study webinar highlights how sensor technology changed the way space is analyzed, used, and assigned at Stanford. Presenters will share how they used proof-of-concepts to evaluate sensor technology and determine the best solutions, as well as best practices. They’ll share valuable lessons learned in developing a business case for sensor implementation, overcoming internal political challenges, and space sharing, closures and consolidations. Attendees will see how sensors were integrated with a room reservation system for shared resources (i.e. consult rooms, sleep rooms, lactations spaces) and will obtain examples, dashboards, and reports for how space utilization data is being used to resolve space requests and determine how future spaces should be designed.

August 2020 Webinar

In response to the COVID-19 global health crisis, the healthcare industry is finding ways to innovate its practice and engage with patients from a distance. Virtual care is playing a much larger role in triaging patients to promote social distancing and keep hospitals and clinics from becoming overwhelmed. In a time of rapid expansion and the need for quick deployment, some very simple design tips can help you make the most of your virtual care spaces. This webinar will explore those innovations that are being deployed for the near term and for the future.

June 2018 Webinar

This webinar will feature disruptive telemedicine technologies and explore their potential to launch a virtual medical care delivery model that challenges the heart of our healthcare system—the patient-doctor relationship. These virtual care technologies are having significant influence on healthcare design because they demand very different kinds of facilities, and in some cases no facilities at all.

May 2018 Webinar

In this webinar, you will learn about an innovative clinic design and care-delivery model, as well as the real-time locating system (RTLS) technology that supports it. Yet how do you design a clinic and its workflow without a waiting room, where exam rooms are always free for the next patient, where patients make their own way through the halls, and where providers and staff easily know where to go next?

Design Strategies
June 2016 Design Strategies

Technology is one of the most challenging issues in healthcare. The current combination of recent health reform laws, federal stimulus funds, and the ongoing wave of new healthcare technology can be described as a “tsunami” of sorts. Healthcare leaders are overwhelmed, as planning for the future of technology stands to transform many current care practices.  Successfully integrating technology means planning for today as well as anticipating future needs, and directly impacts the programming, planning, and design of all healthcare settings.
