For SS Site Development, how many credits are available for Healthcare projects?

For Healthcare projects under the LEED V4 framework, only one credit is available for Site Development. This credit focuses on managing the site to minimize harmful impacts on the natural environment, particularly in healthcare settings where issues like stormwater management, heat island effect, and vegetation preservation can significantly affect human health and the surrounding community.

Healthcare projects are evaluated with a keen eye on how site development practices influence patient health and well-being, as well as environmental quality. The single credit reflects the streamlined nature of this approach, recognizing that while multiple aspects are critical, the emphasis is placed on achieving specific sustainable site initiatives that align with healthcare goals.

In contrast, the other options indicate a misunderstanding of the LEED credit structure for site development within healthcare projects. There are no additional credits allocated beyond the single credit available, making the other choices inaccurate.
