LED — lighting for healthcare and wellness facilities
The psychological effect of light is an undeniable fact.
Its importance is increasingly recognised in the healthcare sector as well. Studies show that coordinated lighting concepts in hospitals can help speed up patients' recovery, and that they tangibly improve well-being in care homes too.
Making optimal use of light has a stimulating effect and encourages communication in residential homes for older people, improving residents' quality of life. In consulting rooms, appropriate lighting can put patients in a frame of mind that is “ready for examination” while also helping them to relax. This calming effect benefits patients and healthcare staff alike.
Dimming systems make it possible to adapt lighting effects to the needs of particular treatments and examinations. LED luminaires free of IR and UV components do not damage tissue or skin, which makes them ideally suited to healthcare settings.
Recommended illuminance:
Examination / treatment: 1000 lx
Operating theatres: 1000 lx
Hairdressing and hair care: 500 lx
Waiting rooms: 200 lx
