The internet home for the Design Guide for the Built Environment of Behavioral Health Facilities is now the Facility Guidelines Institute website at www.fgiguidelines.org/beyond.
“Relocation to the FGI website makes good sense as FGI is the national organization known for establishing consensus standards for health and residential care facilities, and the Design Guide is a great supplement to their work,” said NAPHS President and CEO Mark Covall.
“We at FGI are expanding our mission to publish documents that go beyond the fundamental facility design requirements we are known for,” said Douglas Erickson, CEO of FGI.
The Design Guide focuses on how the physical environment affects patient and staff safety.
