What makes wayfinding so important to a hospital’s bottom line?
The estimated costs for living with a poor and ineffective wayfinding program in a midsized facility of 350 - 400 inpatient beds, and approximately 600,000 square feet of interior space, ranges from $150,000 - $200,000 annually, (Zimring 1990). Adjusted for inflation, that number would be slightly over $400,000 today. These estimates are based upon loss of revenue for reallocation of time and the support necessary to shore up an inadequate wayfinding system. What goes into ca
