For the Future of Health Care Design, Look Beyond the Hospital: Our infrastructure is set up to rely on high-cost facilities. But lowering costs will require small-bore treatment at a new type of facility. | Co.Design - http://www.fastcodesign.com/1663450...
“The conditions are in place for a revolution in health care delivery--moving from a focus on disease care to maintaining health and wellness. It is time to imagine a new role for the health care sector, one that moves beyond saving lives in crisis to improving health while restoring ecosystems and regenerating social and natural capital. From sponsoring farmers’ markets to launching community-based exercise and wellness programs, the health care industry is uniquely positioned to model health and wellness in a society in need of alternatives to fast food and sedentary lifestyles. We deserve nothing less from the industry best positioned to protect our health.” - × × ×
