October 10, Healthcare Research Director Laurie Waggener, CHID, and Houston Managing Principal Tushar Gupta, FAIA, attended the Healthcare Design Conference + Expo held in San Antonio, Texas. There, during the Center for Health Design’s Awards and Changemaker Keynote event, they accepted two Touchstone Awards that showcase our firm’s commitment to evidence-based design.

EYP, a Page company (Page/EYP), was awarded the Platinum Level Touchstone Award for our work at The New Stamford Hospital. In recognizing this project, jurors noted that it demonstrated achievement across three touchstones: collaboration, evaluation, and sharing.

Our firm also received a Silver award for our work at Hackensack Meridian Health’s Ocean Medical Center, Hirair and Anna Hovnanian Emergency Department.

“We wish to thank our partners in our third-party analyses,” said Laurie: “Alan Hedge, PhD, Professor Emeritus, Cornell University for Stamford Hospital and Rana Sagha Zadeh, M. Arch, PhD, Cornell University for the Ocean Medical Center Emergency Department.”
