To meet the growing needs of communities, as well as improving quality of care, healthcare providers often look to construction as a way of meeting these demands. Construction projects, obviously, create budget and time concerns to providing cost effective and efficient care. Fortunately, there are steps they can take to ensure a more successful construction project.

In this episode I talk with Christine Dickinson, Principal Facilities, Capital, and Construction for Vizient to uncover these steps to a more successful healthcare construction project. Christine brings more than 25 years of experience in the construction industry and specifically 20 years in healthcare. 

Christine was integral in the incubation and development of Vizient Facility & Construction Solutions. 

As a program lead for the Western region, she implemented value-driven solutions positively impacting more than $11B in member master building programs, in addition created a member specific process for establishing and maintaining owner standards which deliver savings through utilization on all member facility maintenance and construction projects.
