Hospital & Healthcare Lighting

Lighting for Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities

Patients who spend time in a healthcare facility can be a stressful experience. Hospital and nursing home lighting doesn’t have to be fluorescent light, harsh, or unpleasant.

Much of this stress can be traced back to medical office lighting that is too bright or too cool toned for everyday comfort. As technology evolves into LED and UVC Lighting, modern hospital lighting solutions must include energy efficient LED and even bacteria killing (UVC) lighting for hospitals. 

Quality lighting for hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities enables healthcare providers to give quality healthcare services to patients in a comfortable and safe environment.

At Lighting and Supplies, we provide state-of-the-art commercial lighting solutions for hospitals and healthcare facilities. Our lighting solutions provide long lasting energy efficient illumination that saves energy and costs for healthcare property managers and administrators. This also ensures patients and their families experience a more relaxing environment, which can improve overall patient satisfaction.

Reduce Expenses & Energy Usage

When hospitals spend less money on their electricity bill, they can spend more money on highly qualified staff, state-of-the-art technology, and even take on more patients. What’s more, making the right choice in selecting a healthcare lighting solution can go a long way in reducing overhead costs in both reduced energy consumption as well as maintenance costs.

LED Lighting for Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities

When the lighting in healthcare facilities is high quality, it promotes healing. Bright, crisp lighting ensures that healthcare providers can deliver the most effective care.

In the age of ever increasing overhead and operating costs, reducing annual lighting expenses goes a long way in improving sustainability and the bottom line. LED technology offers a unique and powerful way in which to accomplish this, with no significant downsides. 

LED lights are up to 70% more efficient than traditional lighting technologies such as fluorescents, incandescent and HIDs. This reduction in energy consumption has a massive effect on ROI for large scale healthcare operations, which typically use hundreds of light fixtures throughout their facilities. In addition to the boost in efficiency, LED fixtures require zero maintenance.

What’s more, the elimination of maintenance requirements normally associated with traditional lighting saves a considerable amount in both parts and labor for building managers and facility maintenance crews.

Healthcare Lighting Fixtures

Healthcare facilities have a number of different LED fixture demands and can improve overall patient experience. The selection of a fixture depends on the particular application and area in which it is installed in a healthcare facility. Generally speaking, healthcare lighting fixtures are divided into two main categories - indoor and outdoor. 

Due to the typically lower ceiling heights of hospitals, indoor lighting fixtures are usually troffers and tube lights, which provide wide and broad lighting for waiting rooms, patient rooms and wide hallways. 

Outdoor lighting for healthcare facilities usually entails lighting for walkways, drop off areas as well as landscaping and parking lot lighting. Wall packs and canopy lights are the most common in parking garages, entryways and walkways, while flood lights and street lights make up the majority of parking lot and landscape lighting.
