Corbin Design has developed wayfinding and signage systems, standards and master plans for more than 60 hospitals across the United States and Canada. Among our healthcare clients, 17 have made Thomson Healthcare’s list of 100 Top Hospitals and 12 are listed on U.S. News and World Report’s 2007 ranking of America’s Best Hospitals.

From traditional signage-based wayfinding systems to ones that incorporate landmarks and interactive kiosks, our healthcare wayfinding systems direct drivers and pedestrians safely and efficiently across medical campuses and guide patients and visitors securely through complex hospital buildings.

Because medical facilities are so dynamic, with changing staff and department locations, our systems are designed to be easily updated, with replaceable inserts and sign elements that can be changed by hospital staff. Networked electronic kiosks at key hospital locations can be used to provide directions in different languages and print out paths to key destinations, and updates can be made instantly by in-house personnel.

We work closely with facilities and marketing departments to assure that wayfinding terminology is easily understood, and that the terminology and hospital brand remain consistent across all communications, creating a safer environment and a more unified message to the public.
