Healthcare
The SenezCo team has decades of experience partnering with healthcare systems to identify areas of risk, and risk improvement for operational safety of staff and patient care. Healthcare occupancies are constantly evolving entities, and therefore are continually required to analyze the level of hazards associated within the facility. We work to provide our clients the highest level of support for maintaining compliance with complex regulations and standards including:
- Defend-in-Place Strategies
- Alternate Compliance if an existing situation does not meet the prescriptive requirements of the Life Safety Code® (NFPA 101)
- Surge Capacity Procedures
- Infection Control Mitigation
- Training of Surgical and Clinical Staff
- Inspection, Testing and Maintenance of Fire and Life Safety Systems
Providing comprehensive fire and life safety code compliance surveys of healthcare occupancies is essential for safeguarding the well-being of patients and staff, maintaining legal compliance, mitigating risks, enhancing emergency preparedness, and meeting insurance requirements. Every occupancy within the industry is unique and requires a tailored approach. We can support healthcare facility operations by providing:
- Fire and Life Safety Code Compliance Surveys
- Fire Safety Evaluation System (FSES) Surveys
- Emergency & Disaster Response Planning
- Tabletop Exercises and Full-Scale Drills
- Fire Suppression/Alarm System Design
- Fire, Smoke, and Egress Modeling
- Fire Door Assessments
- Fire Damper Inspections
- Hazard Vulnerability Analysis
- Surge Capacity Planning
- Clinical and Surgical Staff Fire Training
We collaborate with architectural and engineering firms on large-scale healthcare projects, delivering certification and code compliance services tailored to fire and life safety, emergency response planning, and facility design within the healthcare sector.
SenezCo has offices in Canada, the United States and France, with professional engineers licensed to practice engineering in most provinces in Canada.
