Countless magazine articles and conference presentations have documented how lighting design in healthcare facilities can create holistic, comfortable healing environments.

On May 5th, 2009, Kenall’s George Ryder, Vice President of Market Research and Development will be presenting the AIA accredited “Healthcare Lighting That Saves Lives” to attendees of LightFair International in New York, New York.  In this presentation, Ryder pinpoints four threats concerning healthcare acquired infections (HAI) and patient safety:
             • Leakage from the fixtures form particulates within the room
             • Leakage into the room or fixtures from contaminants in the ceiling plenum
             • Cleanability of a lighting fixture
             • Electromagnetic interference with hospital equipment

Take a look in LD+A’s April 2009 issue at “Just What the Doctor Ordered” to learn more about Ryder’s clean-room lighting techniques for environmentally-critical hospital applications.

After consulting industry experts on the concerns of specifiers and owners all over the country, Kenall has developed a new and improved website that makes specifying lighting for specific types of projects easier than ever. Instead of searching for fixtures by product type alone, you now can locate the best fixtures for your needs based on the specific project type you’re working on, as well as individual applications within those project types.

For example, if you’re working on a school gym, you can simply go to the Education Project Type section and select the Gymnasium application. There you’ll find pertinent information about lighting for the application and links to the Kenall products designed for school gym applications. And if you already know the Kenall fixtures you want, you can still find fixtures by catalog number and fixture type.

In partnership with the Kenall program Promotion Through Enlightenment, the site has also been upgraded to provide you with useful and interactive educational tools including Kenall videos and presentations, literature and articles, and a section devoted to Kenall and industry news & events. Give it a try – we think you’ll like what you see.
