Tampa General improves facility with LED lighting and digital controls

LED lighting was chosen for nurses stations, corridors, exam rooms, conference rooms, the lounge and the waiting room


The Tampa General Medical Group (TGMG) Family Care Center in Brandon, Fla., needed to make changes to coincide with federal regulations. The hospital system wanted to provide light levels suitable for patients, nurses and doctors while reducing energy and maintenance costs in it's new facility, according to an article on the Consulting- Specifying Engineering website.

TGMG looked to LED lighting paired with lighting controls and knew this combination would allow them to meet the challenges. The LED lighting was chosen for approximately 75 percent of the building, including nurses stations, corridors, exam rooms, conference rooms, the lounge and the waiting room. 

The lighting was well received by the clinic staff, the article said. TGMG plans to use LED lighting and controls in all future primary care facilities. It also intends to upgrade its main hospital campus with new LED luminaires.
