Developing comprehensive utility failure plans requires staff partnership and communication, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.
The partnership between a facilities/engineering staff and the emergency management staff is critical to the success of managing a utility failure event.
It is just a matter of time before an unexpected system failure occurs that will impact the normal operations of a healthcare facility.
The team approach can not only greatly improve the resiliency of a facility but also the response of a team when failures do occur.
