  Decode the New Guidelines for Healthcare Facilities
New Webinar on April 5 helps you unlock the new structure
Join Kurt Rockstroh, AIA, ACHA, of the Health Guidelines Revision Committee steering group, as he reviews the new organization of the Guidelines for Design and Construction of Health Care Facilities and a Webinar presented April 5, 12:30–2 p.m. ET. Participants will gain an overview of how the new Guidelines morphed from 15 chapters in the 2001 edition into only four sections in the 2006 edition, with clear instructions on how to use the new format to access the appropriate design information. Rockstroh also will share answers to frequently asked questions. The Webinar is available for $195 per location and offers 1.5 AIA/CES learning units.
