Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is an Infection Surveillance Plan for Construction?
It’s a proactive system that monitors patients for construction-related infections, such as wound-site infections or respiratory cases, during construction to prevent outbreaks in adjacent patient areas.
Who manages the surveillance data?
Our IPAC team sets up and trains your infection control team or clinical staff to maintain the surveillance platform and interpret trends.
How does surveillance integrate with construction activities?
We launch the surveillance program at the very start of your healthcare construction and perform scheduled checks throughout construction, and for a defined period after it’s finished.
What is the benefit of implementing an infection surveillance plan on construction sites?
An Infection Surveillance Plan for Construction delivers measurable benefits by detecting early signs of construction-related infections, reducing outbreak-related delays, lowering patient-care costs, and minimizing liability.
