Healthcare Lighting FAQs

What lighting is needed in a healthcare environment?

Healthcare environments need bright, high-CRI lighting that supports accurate diagnosis, patient assessment and clinical procedures. Lux levels vary by area, from 300 lux in corridors to 1000 lux in treatment rooms, with even higher levels for examination and surgical work.

What CRI should hospital and clinic lighting have?

Healthcare lighting should typically have a colour rendering index of at least Ra 90, allowing accurate visual assessment of skin tone and tissue colour. Specific clinical areas such as examination rooms and surgeries may require Ra 95 or higher with dedicated colour-quality optics.

What IP rating do clinical area lights need?

Clinical areas with cleaning regimes typically need IP44 or higher, while wet areas such as wet rooms, sluice rooms and hydrotherapy pools require IP65. Theatre lighting follows specific medical lighting standards and is generally specified by the surgical team rather than facilities.
