Wayfinding
inSync VisualJust as street signs point visitors to parks and landmarks, a hospitals’ internal wayfinding system can give patients and visitors a sense of place and guide them through complex spaces to their final destinations.
Successful healthcare facilities realize that good wayfinding is synonymous with good patient flow, and that applying simple organizational, architectural and graphic principles not only reduce patient stress and anxiety, but can lead to improved patient outcomes, profitability, safety and staff utilization. inSync Visual has developed a wayfinding solution that allows each healthcare facility to participate in a custom design to accommodate their needs.
Clear, concise wayfinding systems have become especially important in healthcare--an industry that is expected to reach $45 billion in construction by 2012, according to FMI, a construction research firm.
Hospitals can become a maze of disconnected, disorienting spaces due to the complexity of their functions and programs. To resolve this problem, our designers "layer" or zone spaces.
