The Center for Health Design Knowledge Repository

Resources

The Center for Health Design (CHD) consolidates access to research on health care design topics in its Knowledge Repository, available from the CHD website (link below). Users of the Knowledge Repository can:

  • Search for material by design, outcome, environmental condition, and other categories.
  • Conduct key word searches.
  • Easily access the findings and design implications of select references in key point summaries written for CHD.

To learn more about the Knowledge Repository, download and read this CHD description.

Note: Unlimited access to the Knowledge Repository is made possible with the funding support of the Facility Guidelines Institute; the American Institute of Architects Academy of Architecture for Health through the Academy of Architecture for Health Foundation; the American Society for Healthcare Engineering; and Design for Aging, an AIA Knowledge Community. Additional Key Point Summaries are provided by the Nursing Institute for Healthcare Design and Research Design Connections.
