The Impact of COVID-19 on Bay Area Healthcare & Accommodating for Changing Patient Needs

Before COVID-19, there was a focus on reducing footprints and having smaller health care facilities to deal with urgent and daily patient visits. Is that still the case? What shifts in decision making, as it relates to design and development, are being made to accommodate an increased demand for outpatient care? What role does technology play in pushing health care outside hospital walls?

Developing Healthcare Facilities for the Future

What is happening with hospital expansions or new health care-related construction? Are plans folding, being delayed or changing in any way? What factors – whether it be a growing and aging community, new legislation, a rise in demand, etc. – are driving hospital expansions and new developments?
