Healthcare

Think about the emotional experience of those healing

Healthcare spaces ought to convey comfort, wellness, security, and a sense of home. Helping people get better begins with helping them feel better.

Supporting the people helping others heal

Well-designed environments can also provide caregivers with a sense of pride in their work, increase their efficiency and effectiveness, minimize the risk of contamination, and cultivate their own wellness, as well as their patents.

Focusing on the entire continuum of care

We developed our Carolina portfolio, enhanced by the rest of our OFS products, to meet the needs of a full-facility design, supporting the healing process for caregivers, patients, and guests.

Public spaces

Public spaces are often times the most utilized spaces in healthcare facilities and play a vital role in the overall patient experience. Furniture in healthcare public areas should connect users to the space around them and allow them to be present in the moment.

Patient spaces

It's about creating spaces that positively support the relationships between patients and caregivers, helping them navigate the best possible path towards wellness and a better life. Well-designed patient spaces are empathetic and humanize the healthcare experience.

Caregiver spaces

Through observing how caregivers perform their daily tasks, we’ve built a portfolio of product solutions that span the entire system of care. These observations inform the design on how to keep caregivers as efficient and refreshed as possible in the delivery of care.

Human needs

Patients, guests, residents, and caregivers coexist and interact perpetually in caregiving spaces,
and providing and receiving care takes each person through many different places. In order to create
positive spaces for care, it is important for everyone along the way to have the smart, comfortable
support they need for better experiences. After decades of thinking about human needs and
creating furniture to support them, we’ve focused on meeting four fundamental human needs.
