"This may be strange to hear regarding a book about Healthcare Wayfinding, but it is quite riveting! Why? Because I live this daily. Almost everything you describe in this book is about our facility. Its comforting to know that folks ...have been there. You’ll laugh when you read this book, because you’ll think he is describing your hospital. You’ll cry when you read this book, because he is describing your hospital.”

Wayfinding for Healthcare is a tremendous resource for anyone striving to achieve a comprehensive wayfinding solution in an increasingly fragmented and disjointed environment. More than just presentations of final products, Randy Cooper steps you through the mindset you need to identify your problems and engage the key people that will own the long-term solution.

Mr. Cooper has created a framework and approach that a facility or design team can utilize in the design process. Designers will be able to look to these guidelines and examples as not only a baseline approach but as a springboard to propel them to more imaginative and creative solutions.
