Healthcare Design magazine, in partnership with The Center for Health Design, announced the winners of the 2022 Nightingale Awards at the the Healthcare Design Conference + Expo in San Antonio.

The annual Nightingale Awards, which recognizes products related to the healthcare built environment, are named for Florence Nightingale, a tireless advocate for the improvement of care and conditions in military and civilian hospitals in the 1800s.
