This is a medical gas system annual inspection report conducted by Premier Medical Inc. at Lake Baldwin VA facility on February 1, 2023. The inspection covers multiple areas including master alarm panels, manifold performance, vacuum pumps, air compressors, and gas outlets throughout the facility.

The report details comprehensive testing of medical gas systems including oxygen, medical air, vacuum, nitrogen, and nitrous oxide systems. Key findings show several areas under construction, particularly in Recovery, Pre-Op and Surgery departments. The inspected systems that were operational showed proper functionality with appropriate pressure levels (oxygen at 52 PSI, medical air at 50 PSI, vacuum at 26Hg). The master alarm panels were tested for visual, audible and test switch functions. The bulk oxygen supply system was noted to be supplied by Air Liquide with cylinder high pressure backup. A critical issue was identified regarding the master alarm cabling system, which requires approximately $140,000 in upgrades to meet NFPA 99 Section 5.1.9.2 standards. Additional deficiencies noted include missing oxygen and medical air labels in several rooms (118, 1122, 1124, 1127).
