Survey responses indicate healthcare activity is increasing for 68 percent of firms. 

Fifty-five percent indicated that the overall square footage of their healthcare projects is increasing, while 9 percent felt the square footage was decreasing and 36 percent felt it was staying the same. 

Most of these projects are being geared toward renovations with over 60 percent of respondents indicating that more than half of their projects are renovations vs. new buildings.
