Facility Management (FM) is a profession that improves business and our lives by ensuring functionality, comfort, safety and efficiency of the built environment and is practiced by 25 million people around the world. The International Facility Management Association (IFMA) is the global body that empowers facility professionals to optimize operations of their facilities, teams and workplace projects.
IFMA’s Health Care Council is a specialized networking group within the association for professionals who manage health care facilities. Recognizing the critical role of FM in enabling health care operations, our mission is to effectively address the challenges of managing medical centers, hospitals, clinics, palliative care and related sites to enhance quality of caregiving.
