COREY GAARDE
Principal, project executive, IMEG (Naperville, Ill.)
A
S A PRINCIPAL and project executive
at IMEG, Corey Gaarde leads the
Healthcare Information Technology
(HIT) Advisory Services team
and strategically aligns HIT to
the collaborative design process. With 20-plus
years of experience in HIT, his work focuses on
strategic planning and execution of advanced
solutions pertaining to facility design and transformation,
clinical collaboration and communication,
patient/family engagement, clinical
workfl ow, telemedicine, and medical device integration.
His goal is to ensure that the voices of
patients, their families, and care team members
are heard so that HIT meets their experiential
needs and the owner's goals.
In his role, Gaarde is known for pushing the
traditional design process by encouraging clients
to consider what might be possible through
HIT while aligning to the overall design schedule
and budget. For example, he recently worked
with a pediatrics campus to map the journey of a
patient, the family, and care team members and
envision a multitude of HIT applications for the
proposed new facilities. Ideas included using
artificial intelligence (AI) and mixed reality to
inform, soothe, and entertain pediatric patients
and their families and improve their experience
via technology. Possible applications included
outfi tting patients with virtual reality goggles so
they can virtually step into their body and point
UW Health Eastpark Medical Center
out how and where they feel symptoms or using
smart glasses to map a patient's route to his or
her room and personalize the artwork they " see "
on the lobby walls along the way. Overall, Gaarde
helps clients integrate " what ifs " into the design
early on, so the facility's technology is futureready
when it opens.
He's also passionate about improving guidelines
for the design and construction of healthcare
facilities, which led to his recent involvement
with The Center for Health Design's
Environmental Standards Council. Meanwhile,
he also shares his knowledge during conference
presentations, blog posts, podcast appearances,
and co-authoring IMEG executive
guides, including " Enhancing the Quadruple
Aim through Data-Driven Decisions in the Built
Environment. " His participation with associations-from
the Nursing Institute for Healthcare
Design to the Healthcare Information and
Management Systems Society (HIMSS)-further
demonstrates his commitment to transforming
the patient, family, and caregiver experience
by leveraging technology by design.
