As healthcare facilities have grown in sophistication, so has their reliance on equipment, specialized environments, and computer systems. Hospitals give special meaning to “24/7 mission critical” and “life safety.” Oversight by JCAHO (Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations) demands that fire protection system Inspection-Testing-Maintenance records be kept current and accurate.
MRI Machines - Sophisticated and expensive equipment, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines, are often used to provide diagnostic services that are critical to a hospital’s mission. MRI machines pose a unique fire protection challenge for a hospital, not only because the tremendous energy used can be a source of fire, but also because traditional fire fighting techniques cannot be used in proximity of the machine’s magnets—without posing an undue risk to the patient, who may be immobilized. And when the equipment replacement costs as well as the business interruption costs are added in, it becomes clear that the protection of MRI machine is vital to a hospital’s continued productivity and profitability.
Data Center – With the rise in electronic medical records and other electronic systems that rely on data, healthcare facilities often must maintain their own data centers.
