Aging infrastructure, deferred maintenance and poorly coordinated capital projects can create bottlenecks that affect everything from patient flow to an organization's ability to grow. Yet building something new isn't always the answer.

In this Healthcare Insider podcast, Gordian's Mark Kenneday shares his best advice for being more strategic with facility planning. Drawing on 40 years in healthcare facilities leadership, Kenneday explains:

  • Ways addressing a bottleneck in one department can simply move the problem downstream
  • How leaders can better connect capital planning to service-line strategy
  • Why deferred maintenance should be viewed through the lens of operational risk—not just facility condition

Kenneday also shares a striking example from his own career: a $2 million flood-mitigation investment that helped keep one Texas hospital operational when Tropical Storm Allison struck just 13 days after the project went into use.

Listen to learn how healthcare leaders can better prioritize facility investments, protect continuity of care and get more value from the buildings they already have.
