2023 Healthcare Design Conference + Expo | New Orleans, LA

Our member dinner was held at Grand Isle Restaurant and was a lively “kick-off” to HCD!

With over 50 participants, our pre-conference workshop, R.A.I.S.E. The Bar for Healthcare Design Through Research and Evidence empowered diverse members of the healthcare design team to explore the prismatic spectrum of research and evidence-informed/evidence-based design through creating a culture of inquiry, fostering critical appraisal skills, and promoting translation to project scope. Attendees worked through virtual escape rooms to conclude.

125+ sponsors, partners and members networked and formed new relationships at our annual reception. The NIHD Foundation’s inaugural Art Auction was held raised funds to support future NIHD member initiatives.

10 Abstracts were presented in the Clinical Perspectives track. Up to 10 hours of continuing nursing professional development were awarded to RN’s attending.

2022 Healthcare Design Conference + Expo | San Antonio, TX

Members enjoyed a fabulous evening in the private Wine Cellar at Zinc Bistro & Bar, where many members gathered to reconnect and meet new friends before the commencement of the conference.

With over 60 participants, our pre-conference workshop, ROI of the Clinical Voice in Healthcare Design: How to Get it and What It's Worth in the Quest for Better Designs, challenged us to rethink the participants needed during the design process. NIHD Board member Kate Newcomb-DeSanto MSN, RN, MSW, EDAC delivered the keynote and set the stage for participants to share how best to leverage the clinical voice from the beginning of the design process. We are so thankful for our rock star panel of Sarah Francis MSN, RN, NEA-BC, EDAC, Juliet L. Rogers, PhD, MPH, and Cathy Massey RN, BSN, MSN, EDAC for sharing their perspectives on the value of involving clinicians in the design process.

PDC STUDENT CHALLENGE 2022 | New Orleans, LA

NIHD sponsored 4 graduate nursing students from Louisiana State University (LSU) to participate in the challenge. When board member Faith Bontrager, NIHD Board Member for Education arrived at the PDC Summit student challenge, spirits were high, although students later revealed their expectations were fuzzy. A 48-hour design challenge?  It was “good” that nurses were involved, but that included answering a few questions while the designers, engineers, and construction managers worked, right?
