Due to the growing popularity of holistic wellness, wellness tourism is estimated to create $919 billion by the year 2022, according to the Global Wellness Institute. In this session, presenters will examine the push toward holistic wellness and what that means for the future of healthcare environments. Specifically, they’ll address: the evolution of the “resimercial” trend; the emerging healthcare users need for instant gratification; and the importance of variety to allow visitors to tailor the environment for their specific needs. They will then discuss design solutions to implement today to keep your healthcare facility in line with the emerging changes in healthcare delivery.
