Over the last year, we have seen hospitals and healthcare systems make transformative changes to patient safety and care. With improvements to privacy and infection control being a necessary part of that change, we were excited to work with hundreds of healthcare teams from around the world to learn about their privacy needs and develop solutions to address them.
Now, we want to take a moment to celebrate some of the best projects of 2023 from around the world.
This curated list reflects a rich diversity of hospital and clinical environments, where hygiene, functionality, and aesthetic appeal all play an important role. The success of these projects is the direct result of close collaboration with managers, working hands-on and in-person with end users, and thoughtful implementation that ensures a long-term solution.
View the slideshows below to explore the unique features and challenges of each project and delve into the transformative power of the Silentia screen system to modernize patient safety and set a new bar for patient-oriented care.
