Healthcare is undergoing an evolution where ambient technologies are fundamentally reshaping how, when, and where care is delivered. 

The seamless integration of physical and digital touchpoints throughout the patient journey enables "phygital care".   This dual transformation demands a radical shift from traditional room-centric design to adaptive, workflow-responsive environments that treat virtual, and in-person care not as separate modalities, but as integrated components of a unified care experience.

Healthcare facilities poised for success will function as dynamic hybrid environments.  These care spaces will merge advanced technology with deeply human-centered design. Healthcare facilities will feature invisible yet intelligent infrastructure that allows patients and providers to move fluidly between virtual and in-person care experiences, creating a unified ecosystem where cutting-edge innovation serves to enhance rather than replace the fundamental human elements of healing.
