Building Healthcare Awards to acknowledge regional hospitals

Hospital Build and Infrastructure, now rebranded as Building Healthcare Exhibition & Conferences, continues to recognise leaders in the healthcare industry who have devoted their efforts to building exceptional hospital facilities in the Middle East with the 2015 Building Healthcare Awards. The ‘People's Choice Award’ is a new awards category and is voted for by visitors at the exhibition.

Building Healthcare Exhibition & Conferences is a three day events that focuses on the design of the healing environment and how this impacts patient safety, operations, and the financial success of a healthcare facility. The submission deadline for the awards nominations is 22 April 2015 and the awards ceremony will take place on 9 June 2015 during the Building Healthcare Exhibition & Conferences at the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre.

“Hospitals are an integral part of healthcare services and each hospital has its own distinct character, creating an environment that helps the patient to recover. When architects design a hospital, they find inspiration from the vision, mission of the project and from the local environment. These awards will highlight all the innovative ideas for the design and operation of healthcare facilities in the region,” says Simon Page, Managing Director, Informa Life Sciences Exhibitions, organisers of the Building Healthcare Awards.

The award categories for 2015 are best hospital design awards, best hospital of the future award, best physical environment award, best sustainable hospital project award, best healing environment award, best laboratory design award, best technology initiative award, best facilities management service strategy award, as well as the people’s choice award.

According to Dr Mounes Kalaawi, CEO, Clemenceau Medical Centre, winners of the best facilities management service strategy during the 2014 Building Healthcare Awards, “The awards continue to be important for the industry. Awards contribute to successful public recognition. They can also help garner a significant amount of visibility in a certain market or industry, and attract new customers and investors by giving an organisation an edge over its competitors.”
