"Fundamentals of Health Care Renovation and Construction" - April 19th ISHE Purdue Education Event

New and veteran healthcare facility employees will gain helpful information from ISHE's "Fundamentals of Health Care Renovation and Construction" education program April 19th at Purdue University. RSVP Now

Whether it is a new greenfield hospital project or renovation of an existing building, a construction project involving a health facility requires careful planning and diligent execution. This one-day seminar focuses on several fundamental topics critical to a successful project including:

  • Safety and comfort of patients that might be impacted by the project.
  • Compliance with codes and standards, including NFPA 101, NFPA 99 and the Guidelines for the Design and Construction of Health Care Facilities. Some of the requirements that are new or that have changed in the 2012 edition of NFA 101 and NFPA 99 will be discussed.
  • Environmental infection prevention assessment and mitigation measures.
  • Mechanical and electrical systems including medical gas, HVAC and the Essential Electrical System.
