STEP 1:

IDENTIFY SPECIFIC SITE OF ACTIVITY, FOR EXAMPLE, PATIENT

ROOMS, MEDICATION ROOM, AND SO ON.

STEP 2:

IDENTIFY ISSUES RELATED TO: VENTILATION, PLUMBING, AND

ELECTRICAL IN TERMS OF THE OCCURRENCE OF PROBABLE

OUTAGES.

STEP 3:

IDENTIFY CONTAINMENT MEASURES, USING PRIOR

ASSESSMENT. WHAT TYPES OF BARRIERS (FOR EXAMPLE,

SOLIDS WALLS)? WILL HEPA FILTRATION BE REQUIRED?

STEP 4:

CONSIDER POTENTIAL RISK OF WATER DAMAGE. IS THERE A

RISK DUE TO COMPROMISING STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY (FOR

EXAMPLE, WALL, CEILING, ROOF)?

NOTE: RENOVATION/CONSTRUCTION AREA SHALL BE

ISOLATED FROM THE OCCUPIED AREAS DURING

CONSTRUCTION AND SHALL BE NEGATIVE WITH RESPECT TO

SURROUNDING AREAS.

TABLE 6: MINIMUM INFECTION PREVENTION AND CONTROL MEASURES

REQUIRED UPON COMPLETION OF THE ACTIVITY

Construction areas must be inspected by an infection preventionist and engineering representative (and others as determined by the facility) for final activity/project close out and removal of infection prevention and control measures

Work Area Cleaning:

1. Clean work areas including all environmental surfaces, high horizontal surfaces and flooring materials

2. Check all supply and return air registers for dust accumulation on upper surfaces as well as air diffuser surfaces Removal of Critical Barriers:

1. Critical barriers must remain in place during all work involving drywall removal, creation of dust and activities beyond simple touch-up work. The barrier may NOT be removed until a work area cleaning has been performed. Additional cleaning may be needed after removal of barrier

2. All (plastic or hard) barrier removal activities must be completed in a manner that prevents dust release. Use the following precautions when removing hard barriers:

A. Carefully remove screws and painter tape.

B. If dust will be generated during screw removal, use hand-held HEPA vacuum.

C. Drywall cutting is prohibited during removal process D. Clean all stud tracks with HEPA vacuum before removing outer hard barrier E. Use a plastic barrier to enclose area if dust could be generated

Negative Air Requirements:

1. The use of negative air must be designated to remove contaminants from the work area

2. Negative air devices (fans, filters, monitoring and documentation equipment) must remain operational at all times and in place for a period after completion of dust creating activities to remove contaminants from the work area and before removal of critical barriers.

HVAC Systems:

1. Upon removal of critical barriers, remove isolation of HVAC system in areas where work is being performed

2. Verify that HVAC systems are clean and operational.

3. Verify and document through a TAB the HVAC systems meets original airflow and air exchange design specifications Water Systems:

1. Until the potable water system is activated and in use, flushing shall continue at least twice per week in accordance with VHA directive 1061.

13. Ensure availability of equipment for cleaning hands

14. Construct and complete critical barriers meeting NFPA 241 requirements.

Barriers must extend to the ceiling or if ceiling tile is removed, to deck above

15. All (plastic or hard) barrier construction activities must be completed in a manner that prevents dust release. Plastic barriers must be effectively affixed to floor and ceiling (or floor/roof deck above) and secure from movement or damage.

16. Seal all penetrations in containment barriers, including floors and ceiling, using approved materials (UL schedule firestop if applicable for barrier type)

17. Maintain .01 inches /water gauge negative pressurization of the entire workspace by use of HEPA exhaust air systems directed outdoors, or comply with the alternative method outlined in Appendix A of this document.

These control measures must be maintained continuously 24/7 for the duration of the project. HEPA filtered exhaust if discharged directly to the outdoors must be at a istance of 25 feet or greater from entrances, air intakes and operable windows. Exhausting discharged air into shared or recirculating HVAC systems, or other shared exhaust systems (e.g., bathroom exhaust) is prohibited

18. Install a differential pressure sensing device (e.g., magnehelic, manometer, or digital monitoring) on exterior of work containment to continually monitor and document negative pressurization. The “ball in the wall” or similar apparatus are not acceptable

4. Provide active means to control airborne dust from dispersing into occupied areas and/or water mist surface to control dust (e.g., Mobile Dust Containment Cart or some other system)Ensure worker clothing is clean and free of visible dust before leaving the work area

5. Remove or isolate air diffusers (supply and return) to protect the HVAC system from dust and reduce air turbulence. Rebalance system to address diffuser isolation

6. When the work involves or impacts potable water systems including stagnation due to reduced usage, the piping shall be flushed twice a week or isolated from the main system

7. Seal doors to prevent dust migration

8. Contain all trash and debris in the work area. Perform daily cleaning and disposal of trash (covered) from work area using an identified exit route.

9. Any equipment, tools, or materials removed from the work area must be in sealed containers and/or cleaned of dust and debris prior to removal from the area

10. Nonporous/smooth and cleanable containers (with a hard lid) must be used to transport trash and debris from the construction areas. These containers must be damp-wiped cleaned and free of visible dust/debris before leaving the contained work area

11. Install a sticky (dust collection) mat at entrance of contained work area based on facility…
