An overview of safety considerations for contractors and electricians working in health care facilities.

Get insights into the regulatory requirements and maintenance recommendations for smoke control systems in hospitals.

Review peer-reviewed literature on the efficacy and potential for byproduct formation from ions and other chemically additive cleaners.

Regulations and Interpretive Guidelines for Hospitals) contains all CMS requirements and survey guidance for a hospital alternate equipment maintenance (AEM) program. These risk assessment factors are generally not the same as the more common factors that hospitals have used in the past for utility system risk assessments.

In this webinar, Dr. Thomas Doerdelmann will introduce a new in-air pathogen surveillance solution that can identify the presence of SARS-CoV-2, FLU A&B and/or RSV A&B in indoor air to help you monitor and strengthen facility safety protocols. By attending, you’ll gain an understanding of the aerosol collection technology, the workflow of facility implementation and use case applications.

This course discusses how once basic interior sliding doors systems have evolved into a sophisticated solution for a range of commercial spaces with their ability to attenuate sound, improve wayfinding, comply with ADA requirements and defend against fire.

This lunch and learn will talk about impact and usage of sensors, as well as, highlight novel implementations.

This course will walk participants through site acceptance and in-service testing and will review best practices that will empower facility owners and managers to administer appropriate test strategies and service programs to maintain a reliable power system.

This discussion will cover key architectural challenges surfacing as more healthcare facilities deal with patient surges, and creative ways facilities across the country are addressing those challenges. We will share design examples in action, including how pre-fabricated modular solutions help deliver on demand isolation capacity across some of the nation’s earliest and ongoing hotspots.

The Ventilation Management Plan (VMP) aims to create a comprehensive strategy to help health care facilities test and maintain all areas that require any type of ventilation management.

Panelists will share their approaches to managing heat waves, hurricanes, and wildfires and highlight best practices for creating climate-ready hospitals as anchors for resilient communities.

This presentation explores the pertinent changes in healthcare ventilation systems related to the recent release (Sept. 1 , 2020) of ASHRAE 170-2017, Addendum a. The presentation includes a short review of ASHRAE 170 itself, then moves to the highlights of the specific Addendum a.

During this webinar, we will share how the centralization of operational data coupled with advanced analytics provides a level of insight and intelligence that can meet these challenges. This webinar will describe how a single operational data platform can streamline Joint Commission reporting, simplify facilities/utilities monitoring, support more effective maintenance practices, and improve overall facility resilience.

A ventilation management plan will ultimately make the hospital a safer place for patients to heal.

A panel shares how adding systems and feedback loops for standards support an institution’s infrastructure knowledge base.

This presentation will outline important risk mitigation actions that all organizations should undertake as part of their annual Environment of Care review.

The presentation explains the positive impacts of monitoring the current condition of each roof of their facilities and outbuildings can have on their bottom line by implementing a ManagedAssetTM approach to their building envelopes.
