The Healthcare Facilities Symposium & Expo, now in its 23rd year, is the original event that brings together the entire team who designs, plans, constructs and manages healthcare facilities.  HFSE focuses on how the physical space directly impacts the staff, patients & their families and the delivery of healthcare. Ideas, practices, products and solutions will be exchanged, explored and discovered at HFSE that improve current healthcare facilities and plan the facilities of tomorrow.
