By Julie Frazier, AIA, principal, Perkins & Will The past few years have shown that hospitals need to be more flexible and resilient to prepare for any situation, in addition to being calm, healing places for patients. As the healthcare industry continues to evolve, architects and designers are becoming increasingly responsible for responding to the ever-changing needs of the industry and rethinking how hospitals are designed. In 2023, key trends that will reshape healthcare include the prioritization of patient and caregiver wellness, sustainability-driven design and improvements in adaptability and resilience. Fostering Patient, Caregiver Wellness A hospital consists of many moving parts, and every department plays an important role in keeping the facility running efficiently to provide quality care. Implementing thoughtful design practices that improve mood and reduce stress can lead to better care, faster recovery and shorter stays for patients. Utilizing a restorative design approach can transform a clinical space from an institutional-like setting to a healing environment. Elements such as natural daylight, softer lighting, Zen spaces and gardens will continue to rise in popularity as healthcare professionals and operators introduce more wellness-based design strategies to enhance the clinical experience. One of the main goals in patient wellness is to …

By Jim Kornick and Mike Wilson of Avison Young After a historic run coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic, the medical office investment market cooled in the second half of 2022. But signs point to better times ahead. Right now, the cost of debt has not just doubled but has become harder to get. Healthcare providers have been hit hard by inflation and worker shortages. Tenant improvement costs are out of sight. A recession looms. Uncertainty dominates, and so many investors have gone “pencils down.” The good news: This will not persist, though it will put a downward pressure on pricing.

Sellers will be motivated to sell for the same motivations …
