HEALTHCARE LIGHTING
All aspects of the healthcare industry are heavily regulated, so it should come as no surprise that when it comes to lighting applications for healthcare, several important considerations need to be looked into. These considerations apply to all aspects of healthcare. From doctor’s surgeries to hospitals and clinics to dentist’s surgeries, they are some of the most complex requirements that are to be found within the lighting industry.
The levels of lighting within the healthcare industry will also vary between different areas of the same building. Both examination rooms and operating theatres are among those areas where a high level of light is vital. They both also require good colour rendering, which will ensure that the potential of glare is kept to a minimum for the medical staff working there in order to ensure that their view of the medical treatment taking place is not hampered in any way. Throughout the healthcare sector, but in particular, in those areas that need to remain hygienically clean to prevent contamination, it is also vitally important to ensure that the chosen healthcare lighting is easy to clean and, of course, reliable. For example, unreliable lighting in an operating theatre is simply not an option.

PROFESSIONAL AND TECHNICAL DESIGN
Much of the lighting in a healthcare setting also needs to be moveable. This allows it to be positioned in the best possible way to treat patients and then allows staff to move it out of the way again when it is no longer required. With the requirement for so many different types of lighting within different areas of the healthcare sector, there are a number of different guidelines that need to be followed, and there are also different requirements for the strengths of lighting that are needed in different areas and for different tasks. The light used for ward rounds at night must, for example, be sufficient for the staff member to see the face of the patient to confirm that it is them and they are okay, but not bright enough to wake them.
