Artificial intelligence (AI) is impacting nearly all aspects of healthcare — including facilities, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.
Healthcare design must adapt to the billions of data-gathering devices and the trillions of data points collected daily.
Traditional environments of care will likely be modified as technology increasingly moves patients away from traditional facilities. For instance, more care will be delivered outside of hospital environments and in home environments.
Another impact of technology-enhanced medical care that is already being experienced today is the necessity that environments of care — facilities or buildings — must be readily adaptable as care processes change.
