WINTER WONDER
Days may be cold, but they're full of promise for the
year to come By Jennifer Kovacs Silvis
IN EARLY FEBRUARY here in Cleveland, we've already
had four snow days, if that tells you how
things are going on the winter weather front. However,
I'm reminded that professionally, at least, it's
still one of my favorite times of year.
We're just coming off of our annual Program
Design Team meeting for the Healthcare Design
Conference + Expo. Virtually, we gathered a jury of
industry professionals who represent our association
partners on the show to spend hours, and then
some more hours, carefully assessing each session
proposal submitted for the 2022 event. In sum, we had about 350 submissions
this year that through this review were culled down to a more manageable
number. Those that got the nod from our team will help shape the fi nal
educational program you'll fi nd Oct. 8-11 in San Antonio.
But that's not where it ends.
Those 350 submissions from firms and healthcare organizations across
the country and world inform so much more. When you're dealing with that
kind of volume, there are bound to be trends and themes that emerge, off ering
several threads to follow. From mental health and pediatrics (and pediatric
mental health) all the way to prefabrication and modular construction,
resiliency and sustainability, and community health and care equity, there
were clear top-of-mind topics.
Yes, many of those will become sessions. But others will inform our coverage
here in the magazine, inspiring columns, project profi les, and webinars.
Some may be produced in more nontraditional ways at the show-look for
programming in the expo hall or in our HCD booth.
I can't help but feel inspired and ready to hit the ground running in 2022
after going through the process. And while the submissions defi nitely off er
a worthwhile peek into what you're all working on and where you think the
industry could use more education, this time of year brings another favorite
of mine: our Healthcare Design A/E/C Survey. At press time, the deadline to
participate has just passed, and I'm thrilled to see a record number of fi rms
responding to our biennial survey.
The results will inform a state-of-the-industry report you can fi nd in our
April issue of the magazine-with data including details like projects completed
and contracts signed as well as insight on the greatest challenges fi rms
face and the drivers behind new healthcare projects.
So while this may be a favorite season of mine, the real goal is that what's
happening now will inform a year's worth of content that will help the important
work you do. 
