Infection Control: A Key Component to Safe Healthcare Projects

IMG_7961-1.jpeg

Almost everything in the healthcare industry is focused on one main point: patient safety. While working in an active healthcare environment, this focus is of utmost importance. Maintaining a healthy environment is key to a successful project outcome, and must be a key factor throughout preconstruction and construction.

One way to evaluate potential hazards that may occur during a healthcare construction project is to perform an Infection Control Risk Assessment. A best-in-class assessment is more than just running down a list of potential hazards and informing personnel of best practices. A sophisticated infection control risk assessment is a living document that forms the foundation of any comprehensive infection prevention program. The policy evolves over time as goals and measurable objectives change, while maintaining a solid framework for consistent patient safety.
