Description

Have you wondered what evidence-based design (EBD) is and would you like to incorporate this process into your practice or on your next project? If so, this unique, interactive workshop will provide you with an introduction to the steps of the EBD process and offers practical guidance to get you started using this process to help shape the future of design.
 
Long-term care facilities, particularly senior living environments, were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as communities across the country responded by enforcing new social distancing requirements to keep residents safe. Industry experts will discuss the issues related to the pandemic, as well as best practices to consider as the industry begins to rethink senior living and space planning.
 
This workshop is a blend of educational content and collaborative discussions that will prepare you to be a better client or partner by giving you information and tools to address some of the challenges facing healthcare today. Once you register for this workshop, The Center for Health Design will ask you to complete a questionnaire prior to attending the session. This information will be used to match you with a coach who will provide individualized coaching tailored to your specific questions and issues in dedicated coaching sessions throughout the day. Light snacks and boxed lunch will be provided. In addition, each attendee receives a discount on a bundle of EBD books and resources from The Center for Health Design. Registration is $395/person. Space is limited.
