Building next to a hospital that never closes

Infection control, vibration and noise: what changes when the building next door is full of patients.

Hospital work starts with an infection-control risk assessment for every phase. It sets the containment class, the barriers, the air pressure in the work area and the route debris takes out of the building.

Noise and vibration

Imaging suites and operating rooms are sensitive to vibration. We monitor it continuously near the live building and schedule the loudest work with the clinical teams a week ahead.
