ASHE Announces Cancellation of 2020 PDC Summit


In light of the latest COVID-19 developments and the unprecedented and still growing demand for health care, construction and architecture organizations at this time, the American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE) has made the difficult but necessary decision to cancel the 2020 PDC Summit. We are confident this is not only in the best interest of our attendees and exhibitors but also the patients and health care facilities they serve.  

“We made the decision to cancel the 2020 PDC Summit after much discussion and deliberation. Many health care, construction, and architecture organizations have implemented travel restrictions for employees, and a large number of PDC Summit registrants must remain on site as they work to ensure health care facilities continue to operate safely during this uncertain time,” said ASHE Interim Executive Director Dale Woodin.

All 2020 PDC Summit attendees will receive further information regarding registration cancellation options via email by March 20. Exhibitors can expect to receive a similar email by March 20.
