Pre-Construction Risk Assessment

Assessing Pre-Construction Risk

As a healthcare provider, your main priority is patient care and safety. This needs to stay top-of-mind even during your construction, renovation, or demolition activities. Such projects may affect air quality, infection control, noise levels, and other issues, but we can help you keep your patients safe, while keeping you in compliance with Joint Commission standards.

Analyze Risk and Ensure Patient Safety

Our experienced EHS consultants can guide you through a comprehensive pre-construction risk assessment and implement a program to ensure patient safety during construction-related projects without hindering your activity. We will:

• Assess patient care risk and Interim Life Safety Measures (ILSMs)
• Make recommendations specific to your organization’s needs
• Write and implement your construction policies and procedures
• Communicate policies and procedures to your healthcare staff and your contractors
