    The American College of Healthcare Architects has announced the winners of its inaugural student design competition, which tasked students to consider the unique challenges faced by rural communities, including limited access to healthcare providers and specialists. Students were encouraged to explore design solutions that promote patient-centered care, utilize sustainable building practices and integrate seamlessly into the surrounding community.

    Emily Drennen Hatch and Ryan VerMulm of Iowa State University won first place with their Tall Pines Medical Center — Hualapai Nation project. Their design’s focus on the needs of a rural indigenous population and unique interior aesthetics were standout features. Winners will be recognized in July 2024 at the AIA/ACHA Summer Leadership Summit.

    “We were incredibly impressed by the creativity and thoughtfulness of the student submissions,” said Ann Adams, AIA, FACHA, EDAC, president of ACHA. “The winning designs demonstrate a deep understanding of the complex issues facing rural healthcare and offer promising solutions for the future.”
