Ceilings for healing: Design and specification guide for healthcare settings

The design of healthcare spaces is a complex field that is ever evolving. Now, more than ever, there is an adherence to evidenced-based design principles, with the goal of achieving optimal patient outcomes through thoughtful design and material specification. The key parameters to achieve this in a healthcare setting include thermal comfort, acoustics, air quality, daylighting, cleanliness and sustainability—all of which can be improved with high-performing ceiling systems.

Ceilings for Healing: Design and Specification Guide for Healthcare Settings examines how ceilings, with the right specifications, can enhance the acoustic quality of a space, support infection control and cleaning measures, enhance natural light and add elements of sustainability to a healthcare building. Hospitals and other healthcare facilities have a variety of spaces, and each one requires a particular type of ceiling. We look at the product properties that will address the most important healthcare requirements.
