Editor’s Letter: And the winner is…maybe you!

Dear Reader:

“It’s about time.” That pretty much sums up what people told us last year when we introduced the HREI Insights Awards™, the only comprehensive national awards totally dedicated to recognizing excellence in the areas of healthcare real estate (HRE) development and executive leadership.

We had a great response last year (thanks to you) and, as I hope you’ve heard by now, we’re doing it again.

We are now accepting nominations of people and projects who demonstrate leadership in the healthcare real estate (HRE) space. To enter, please visit  HREInsights.com.

In addition to acknowledging the best in HRE development projects, the awards program also celebrates the individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the sector.

Here’s a complete list of the award categories:  Medical Office Buildings (MOBs) and Other Outpatient Facilities – Best New Ground-Up Development (four awards in four different size ranges)  MOBs and Other Outpatient Facilities – Best Renovated or Repurposed Building (one award)  Hospitals and Other Inpatient Facilities – Best New Development (one award)  Post-Acute and Senior Living Facilities – Best New Development (one award)  Healthcare Executive of the Year (one award)  Lifetime Achievement Award (one award)

As we did in 2013-14, we will be excited to feature the 2014 winners and finalists in the January 2015 edition of HREI™ magazine, the 2015 HREI Resource Guide™ and on HREInsights.com, as well as in a public awards ceremony in Dec. 16, 2014, at the RealShare HRE conference in Scottsdale, Ariz.

So please don’t miss this opportunity for your people and projects to finally get the national acknowledgement they deserve.  To get all the details about the HREI Insights  Awards™, visit HREInsights.com and click on the awards links.

But please hurry. All entries must be submitted by Oct. 17, 2014. Good luck!
