About this file
This document contains an Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) for an upcoming water distribution system upgrade project at the Overton Brooks VA Medical Center. The ICRA identifies the construction project as a Type B activity due to replacement and installation of components that will result in loss of environmental controls. It further specifies that the project will affect medium risk patient areas. Based on these factors, the ICRA matrix classifies the precaution level for the project as Class II. The ICRA receives preliminary approval and must be posted on site once construction begins.
The related federal contract opportunity is solicitation number 36C25622R0067 for project 667-18-119 to upgrade the main hospital's water distribution system issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration VISN 16. The purpose of the posting is to solicit bids for the project.

STEP ONE: CIRCLE the Type of Construction Project based on scope and expected activity (Type A-D)
TYPE
A
Inspection and Non-Invasive Activities. Includes, but is not limited to:
removal of ceiling tiles for visual inspection only, e.g., limited to 1 tile per 50 square feet painting (but not sanding) wallcovering, electrical trim work, minor plumbing, activities which do not generate dust or require cutting of walls or access to ceilings other than for visual inspection.
TYPE
B
Small scale, short duration activities which create minimal dust Includes, but is not limited to:
installation of telephone and computer cabling access to chase spaces cutting of walls or ceiling where dust migration can be controlled.
Project Specific: Replacement/installation of components that result in a loss of environmental control (HVAC)
TYPE
C
Work generates a moderate/high level of dust or requires demolition/removal of any fixed building components or assemblies Includes, but is not limited to:
sanding of walls for painting or wall covering removal of floorcoverings, ceiling tiles and casework; new wall construction minor duct work or electrical work above ceilings major cabling activities any activity which cannot be completed within a single work shift.
TYPE
D
Major demolition and construction projects Includes, but is not limited to:
activities which require consecutive work shifts requires heavy demolition, removal of a complete cabling system, or excavation new construction.
STEP TWO: CIRCLE the affected Patient Risk Groups. If more than one risk group will be affected, select the higher risk group.
Low Risk Medium Risk High Risk Highest Risk Office areas Kitchen storage area Public access, hallways, elevator Lobby
Non-clinical vacated, engineering space (sub-basement, mechanical rooms)
Cardiology Echocardiography Endoscopy Nuclear Medicine Physical Therapy Radiology/MRI Respiratory
Therapy Kitchen – food preparation area
Step Down Unit Emergency Room Laboratories (specimen) Medical Units Outpatient Surgery Pharmacy Post Anesthesia Care Unit Surgical Units Minor Procedure Rooms Sterile Supply storage/distribution
Immunocompromised patient care areas
Cardiac Cath Lab Sterile Processing Service Preparation Area Decontamination Area
Intensive Care Unit Negative pressure isolation rooms Oncology Operating rooms
STEP THREE: Using the IC Matrix CIRCLE the Class of Precautions as determined by Construction Type and Patient Risk
Construction Project Type Patient Risk Group TYPE A TYPE B TYPE C TYPE D
