This document is a VHA Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) template for construction, renovation, and maintenance activities. The comprehensive document provides a systematic approach to assessing infection risks across different types of work activities, categorizing them from levels A to D based on complexity and patient risk areas. The template includes detailed tables for:

1. Categorizing construction/renovation/maintenance activities (Table 1)
2. Assessing affected areas (Table 2)
3. Determining patient risk categories (Table 3)
4. Establishing levels of infection prevention and control precautions (Table 4)
5. Specifying required infection prevention measures for each precaution level (Tables 5-6)

The document is specifically designed for VA healthcare facilities, with a permit section indicating this particular assessment is for work at the New TR spaces on the WB VA campus and new Data Center, with project management by Bob Calarco and a project start date of 2/6/2025. The assessment requires detailed documentation of control measures, cleaning protocols, HVAC system management, and water system precautions, with different levels of infection control based on the complexity and patient risk associated with the specific construction or maintenance activity.
