Schneider Electric’s New HealthBuildings Risk Assessment, Includes Assessment of Data Center
New health care services help mitigate risk, increase efficiency, extend lifecycle, and increase safety at hospitals.
Schneider Electric has introduced at ASHE 2013 its new HealthBuildings Risk Assessment program. The comprehensive program helps hospital stakeholders understand and prioritize the risks associated with the facility, allowing them to increase efficiency and extend the lifecycle of the hospital infrastructure.
In the HealthBuildings assessment, a team of professional engineers and experts look at a facility’s complete critical infrastructure including mechanical, building management system (BMS), electrical, data center power and cooling systems, and security technology. The assessment provides a detailed, documented roadmap of the risks based on multiple impact levels, such as the effect on patients and the probability of occurrence. It then provides suggestions on the best ways to mitigate these issues and the associated costs, allowing hospital leadership to prioritize and create a performance improvement plan that will result in a safer hospital.
