Healthcare Design magazine, in partnership with The Center for Health Design, presented the annual Nightingale Awards at the Healthcare Design Expo & Conference, held this week in New Orleans.

The annual awards program, named after Florence Nightingale, recognizes contributions to the healthcare built environment through product design and innovation that contributes to healing. Products submitted for consideration are judged on criteria such as clinical or operational outcomes, HAI prevention, functionality, staff effectiveness, efficiency, and communication, sustainability, quality and durability, aesthetics and style, and pricing.

A 13-member jury panel of healthcare architects, interior designers, and facility managers evaluated the products at the HCD Expo, selecting CF Stinson’s DesignMix with Color AI as the Best of Competition.
