Managing physical environmental compliance and risks at your healthcare facility can take leaders in multiple directions with the added uncertainty of emerging or evolving regulations. Our very own Darrell Oman and Eric Bergman with Marge McFarlane from Super Performance Consultants will discuss organizational strategies that compliance, facility management, safety, and clinical leaders can use to tackle issues and implement corrective actions. Challenges and arising issues facing those managing healthcare facilities will be discussed, including, but not limited to:
Emerging Viral Pathogens (EVP)
Comprehensive barrier management, including firestopping, fireproofing, and opening protectives in fire-rated construction
Chemical/waste spills and exposures
Our speakers bring decades of expertise and lessons learned into this session on how individual physical environment compliance risks and challenges overlap and intersect. The insights in this webinar will help attendees in this challenging business landscape to identify processes for effective compliance and risk management in their own physical environments.
