Thank you to everyone who joined us for the 2025 WHEA Annual Conference!

This year’s conference brought together healthcare facility managers and engineers from across the state for three days of education, networking, and collaboration. Attendees participated in code updates, explored current topics impacting healthcare facilities, and engaged with industry-leading exhibitors. Beyond the sessions and exhibits, members had the chance to connect with peers, and enjoy all that the Appleton area has to offer.

Education

Attendees engaged in three days of concentrated healthcare engineering education: a high-impact keynote and breakout from Afterburner to kick off the conference; a full day anchored by the Codes & Standards Committee with split tracks tailored for hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes; and Friday sessions featuring regulatory updates from The Joint Commission and DNV. Throughout the week, participants explored various topics such as code compliance, life safety, construction planning and barriers, water management, and operational best practices.

Technical Exhibition

Our sold-out exhibit showcased solutions and technologies that directly support facility performance, delivering the latest innovations and product offerings for teams in healthcare settings.

Annual Banquet & Awards Program

This year’s banquet at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center was beautifully produced and truly felt like a “red carpet” celebration. Special thanks to Darrell and Penny Courtney for their attention to detail, fun, and flair. Congratulations to all award recipients; your dedication to the profession and to WHEA is truly inspiring.

Looking Ahead

Planning is already underway for next year’s 60th Annual Conference!  Stay tuned for the official Save the Date.
