GB Technical Services provides professional

risk management services in the areas of

environmental, health and safety, building

sciences, forensic engineering, and

construction.

Indoor environmental contaminants and

specialty chemical and biological agents

represent a formidable challenge in

hospitals and medical care facilities. Many

occupational stresses and hazards specific

to hospitals, assisted living, and other

medical facilities are not usually present in

other commercial or industrial situations.

Issues such as microbiological contamination

(mold), while merely allergens to the

general population, can have serious

health effects on those with

compromised immune systems. Similarly, hospital

patients can be particularly susceptible to

infection from the common legionella bacterium,

which can be lethal. Construction and renovation

projects in health care facilities must also be

designed and managed with a heightened level

of sophistication. The use of agents, chemicals,

and gases by medical staff and personnel also

represent a unique set of exposure and industrial

hygiene issues. A property loss such as a sprinkler

failure, flood, sewer back-up, fire, or severe wind

damage must be addressed immediately and at

the highest level of quality and care.
