Healthcare executives juggle decisions worth millions of dollars across multiple campuses while trying to predict a future that keeps changing. Aging facilities need updates, new technologies demand space, and patient needs shift faster than anyone can track. For health systems managing everything from rural Critical Access Hospitals [https://www.bwbr.com/market/critical-access-hospitals/] to major medical centers, the old method of planning one facility at a time leaves critical gaps. BWBR Principal Jason Nordling [https://www.bwbr.com/team-member/jason-nordling/], Senior Planner Jessica Sweeney [https://www.bwbr.com/team-member/jessica-sweeney/], and Principal Brian Zabloudil [https://www.bwbr.com/team-member/brian-zabloudil/] help health systems tackle this complexity through system-level strategic planning [https://www.bwbr.com/discipline/planning/]. Their work extends well past traditional facility master plans, taking on the task of aligning an entire network of care.

When BWBR's design team talks about creating spaces that "welcome and work for everyone," it isn’t PR speak or a feel-good talking point. They’re addressing one of architecture's most complex challenges. Truly equitable design requires intention and thoughtful consideration of elements that go far beyond code compliance. Design Leader Lisa Miller, Interior Designer Katie Reed, and Senior Architectural Designer Josh Simma recently sat down to untangle the often-confused concepts of accessible, universal, and inclusive design. Their conversation reveals why these distinctions matter and how they're reshaping the way spaces get built. If you like what we are doing with our podcasts please subscribe and leave us a review!
