Leveraging Metrics and Operations for Smarter Clinical Laboratory Design
Gain the essential knowledge and tools to translate benchmarking data and operational workflows into effective clinical lab design solutions.
About the live course
Designing clinical laboratories requires both operational insight and architectural strategy to create safe, flexible, and efficient spaces. This course will equip you with the essential knowledge and tools to translate benchmarking data and operational workflows into effective clinical lab design solutions.
Explore how space allocation, planning ratios, clinical lab benchmarks, and operational workflows establish a foundation for programming and design. Learn to optimize your design layout by aligning with best practices, accommodating hazardous materials, and ensuring regulatory compliance. Examine real-world case studies to gain practical insights for designing clinical labs that optimize hospital performance and improve patient outcomes.
- Understand benefits of benchmarking data to support early programming and spatial planning in clinical lab design.
- Analyze the influence of operational workflows on lab layout to optimize functionality and efficiency within clinical laboratories.
- Identify safety and regulatory considerations in lab design, to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
- Consider flexibility and future-proofing strategies in clinical lab spaces, to accommodate evolving needs within healthcare environments.
