Medical care and treatment facilities are some of the most complex, with stringent requirements around clinical functionality, ventilation, and infection control.  By adopting sustainable practices, however, healthcare facilities can reduce their carbon footprint, minimize energy consumption, and enhance resilience against climate change, all while supporting the well-being of patients and staff.  The proper selection of finishes and equipment, introduction of daylight, and places of respite for both staff and patients can result in a more holistic facility committed to healing.
