"I attend the FPC for the energy—it sharpens my perspective and reconnects me to the purpose and people at the heart of our work. Sharing the experience with my team makes it even more meaningful, as I see them flourish with a deeper understanding of our industry and renewed energy to bring innovative solutions that impact lives."
Helena Cheung
"The topics were very much current and targeted at the new technology available to the industry."
Terrence Wright, CHFM, CHSP
"A must attend event for professionals who work in hospital design/construction in Florida. It’s probably the best single place to reconnect with clients and colleagues or to connect with new ones. It almost feels like an annual reunion for me as nearly all my clients, colleagues, and even friendly competitors are all together for three days."
Neal Boothe
"The Seminar has always been well organized and extremely educational! It gets better and better every year, and the organizers are awesome and very helpful. I highly recommend attendance not only to participants involved in ‘Healthcare’ but to anyone else working in the fields of architecture and engineering."
Renée Zepeda, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP
"We as a company, continue to send 15-20 plus team members and managers to this educational and informational seminar. Our company values the expertise and knowledge of the speakers that participate. Networking is one of the major benefits with this event as well. Looking forward to attending again this year."

THIS YEAR
We will be focusing on the monumental changes that are taking place to the 2026 edition of the FGI Guidelines. The FGI Guidelines, that originally grew out of the Hill-Burton Act of 1946, have a rich and long history in the development of minimum design and construction standards for health care facilities. For almost 80 years the FGI Guidelines have continued to evolve and have now been adopted by almost all of the states as the primary health care minimum design and construction code. As a result of these continued applications, the 2026 edition will not only be focused on providing the very latest minimum design standards, but will also be revising its name from the FGI “Guidelines” to the FGI “Code”.
THE FGI CODES
This three volume set of codes is currently being revised with the help of hundreds of health care experts from across the nation and will be adopted by Florida as soon as possible. To assist you in learning and understanding all of the revisions that are being made to these codes, we will have many of the people who have served on the Health Care Guidelines Revision Committee (HGRC) speak directly to these revisions and give you a first-look and intimate knowledge of these health care facility codes.
MAIN SPEAKER SESSIONS
The Main Speaker sessions will focus directly on the history, overall structure, and major changes to each volume. The breakaway sessions will dig deeper into the revisions so you will have a complete understanding of issues that may have been unclear in the areas of Architecture, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Facility Management, and Fire Safety.
