Facility Design for Decentralized Care: American College of Healthcare Architects Explores Issues

"With healthcare continuing its increase in out-patient treatment, wellness and health maintenance, patients and families will have more opportunities to select care givers based upon a retail perspective. What is Yelp saying about the physicians? Is the provider convenient to my home? Is their environment welcoming? . . . This year’s California Health Facilities Forum will begin by talking about the trends in healthcare and continue discuss various aspects of retail and the outpatient experience."
