Evidence-Based Design for Healthcare Improvement
A practical and timely guide to using Evidence-Based Design (EBD) to transform healthcare.
Evidence-Based Design for Healthcare Improvement shows how the built environment can be a powerful tool for advancing healthcare outcomes. With accessible, well-illustrated chapters written by leading experts in EBD in collaboration with clinicians, this book bridges the gap between research and practice.
Focusing on areas where design has the greatest impact—teamwork, safety and infection prevention, patient experience, lighting, wayfinding, and inpatient room design—each chapter offers a concise introduction, key studies, successful project examples, and actionable design strategies.
Inside, readers will find: How EBD addresses core challenges in U.S. healthcare—directly and indirectly Ways that design can drive, not just reflect, change in healthcare systems Research-based strategies to improve outcomes for patients, families, staff, and organizations Specific examples where EBD has measurably improved healthcare environments Practical guidance for designers, health system leaders, and researchers—plus a look at what’s next
Whether you’re a healthcare executive, architect, researcher, or student, Evidence-Based Design for Healthcare Improvement is an essential resource for harnessing the built environment to deliver better care.
