Best Practices

In healthcare construction, pressure monitoring is often treated as a single task. A gauge is installed. A number is checked. A reading is recorded. In reality, pressure monitoring is not one step. It is a workflow that helps teams manage risk and demonstrate control over time.

Containment is a foundational requirement in healthcare construction. Its purpose is simple but critical: prevent the migration of dust, debris, and airborne contaminants from construction areas into occupied clinical spaces.

Airflow control is a critical element of infection prevention in healthcare construction and renovation. Proper ventilation not only helps remove dust and debris but also plays a vital role in preventing airborne contaminants from spreading into patient care areas.

When working in occupied healthcare environments, protecting patients from airborne contaminants during construction, renovation, or maintenance is critical. The Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) process has long been the standard framework for identifying and mitigating those risks.

LSU overcame infrastructure and timeline challenges by deploying over 500 portable air purifiers across campus in under 12 weeks. This case study shows how smart, fast action helped meet air quality standards, reduce airborne risk, and support a safe return to in-person learning.

With growing demands for superior air quality in critical environments, advanced HEPA filtration and negative air solutions play a key role in maintaining safety, efficiency, and compliance. Omni CleanAir’s portable, high-performance systems are designed to meet the needs of healthcare, construction, and industrial applications, ensuring cleaner air where it matters most.
