Building the Case for Prevention through Design Presentation-Kaiser Permanente

摘要

Good afternoon. When I see all of these engineers, architects, etc., who manage their process so carefully, then compare it to health care, our industry seems to be a lot more chaotic. I will give you a little background on our scale. We operate in nine states and the District of Columbia within eight regions, Northern California, Southern California, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, the Mid-Atlantic States, Ohio, and Oregon/Washington. In some regions, Kaiser Permanente (KP) owns and operates hospitals. In others, we work with facilities operated by other organizations.
