As nurses are the primary deliverers of care in a healthcare setting, clinicians provide valuable insight to internal workflows and staffing models that contribute to more efficient healthcare design.

We are honored to be featured as the cover story in Health Facilities Management's May 2022 issue! "Nurse Approved; Caregivers Provide Essential Design Guidance" features the stories of seven members of Nursing Institute for Healthcare Design (NIHD), sharing their experiences as a nurse in healthcare design, and how a nurse's expertise can have a huge impact in a project. Our members are thought leaders, paving their own unique paths in the industry, and inviting others to join! Bravo!
