Danto Builders How to Deal with Construction Site Contamination | Page 17

Maintaining Building Standards
As mentioned earlier, building codes are ever-changing, or new
ones are being introduced every other day. This brings in a
challenge to healthcare construction as buildings should meet the
stipulated requirements to get approved for medical applications.
Failure to comply with this obligation compromises the building’s
safety and puts patients’ and staff’s lives at risk.
Solution
Healthcare construction is indeed a highly specialized project and
it is necessary to involve certified healthcare facility managers
and healthcare contractors who will guide everyone involved in
the project on the best practices, regulatory mandates, and
accepted guidelines. Third-party inspection is paramount to
ensure that the construction progresses as per the standards.
