Spring EDAC Special

(1) An Issue Brief from our Perception of Cleanliness Toolbox
Research shows that in the environment, cleanliness plays an important role in the perception of patient care and improving HCAHPS scores. The Center for Health Design’s latest issue brief examines how to define and measure environmental cleanliness and discusses how the built environment helps achieve “clean” goals.
(2) A Practitioner’s Guide to Evidence-Based Design
Written by leaders in the field, this book bridges the gap between theory and practice in the design of healthcare facilities. It provides a practical reference guide for all who need to know how to improve the outcomes of patients by designing our healthcare facilities better through the implementation of evidence-based design.
By becoming EDAC certified, you will become a part of a global community of forward thinkers who envision a world where all healthcare environments are created using an evidence-based design process. The EDAC credential illustrates to clients, employers, and colleagues that you know how to use credible research to implement an evidence-based design process to make life-changing improvements to environments around the world.
