When you’re creating and working in a negative pressure work environment in any healthcare renovation, what do you do with the exhaust air?

When you can’t pump it directly outside (usually the preferred method), that leaves inside – where dust, mold, asbestos and all sorts of construction yuckiness can threaten the delicate balance of air quality in your patients’ environment of care.

And violations to the environment of care can not only threaten your sickest patients’ lives – they can also threaten your funding and raise your risk of lawsuits from patients and their families.

Before you go any further with your current renovation project or your next one, sign up for this fully accredited environment of care air quality training conference. Get practical solutions to air exhaust problems: Technology that can clean your air more thoroughly and faster with less set-up and preparation from your team … How to identify key participants and get them involved in the process earlier, so they can anticipate problems and solve them … Practical steps that will save your air quality and your peace of mind!

You have options when it comes to exhausting air from a work space – more options than you realize. How do you weigh the risks with the benefits? And how do you determine what’s right for your unique situation?

It’s time to get the practical answers that make sense for your facility – solutions that will result in better air quality during construction without breaking the bank or causing too much inconvenience. Sign up today for this extraordinary environment of care air quality training conference, and see what superior construction air quality can be like!

• Who are the key participants you need in the very beginning of the engineering controls design process, starting with these two critical roles?
• The three best location options for depositing air – and the possible risks associated with each.
• You have options – but do you know the best way to evaluate all of them for effectiveness for your specific situation?
