At the ACE Summit, we believe it is of primary importance during this time to prioritize the continued sharing of information and education to overcome supply chain disruptions and continuity concerns resulting from COVID-19.

Through the below page, the ACE Summit will feature several complimentary webinars focused on developments in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic from health systems across the nation. Featuring leading healthcare, business, and governmental experts, the following webinars will provide timely updates about COVID-19.

How and Why to Plan and Design for the "What If" Scenario

Wednesday, April 8th | 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm ET

This webinar will discuss how to implement designs from Master Planning to immediate “ fixes” in both dedicated Healthcare and Non-Traditional Care environments. The goal is to manage the maximum number of patients with the minimal amount of risk in a limited physical area, and in as safe a manner as possible.

AIA/EDAC Key Learning Objectives 

1. Why are we locked in to “Hospitals” in mass casualty scenarios, and what alternatives may be available. 

2.  How to approach the development of “non-traditional” healthcare environments for mass casualty response. 

3. Options for designing surge patient care spaces as part of any healthcare facility today and tomorrow. 

4.  Introduction of true alternate point of care opportunities already available in our communities.

5.  Specifically address what options may be available to mitigate risk during the current CORONA-19 pandemic.
