The Evolving Healthcare Water Management Landscape | Webinar

Healthcare facility professionals face an increasingly complex environment of water management standards, accreditation requirements, and regulatory expectations. As waterborne pathogen risks continue to evolve and compliance demands grow, facility leaders need clarity on current guidelines, practical strategies for implementing programs, and insights into emerging developments that will shape their water safety practices.

This webinar will explore a comprehensive, facility-wide approach to water management and the critical role of cross-team collaboration. You will gain an understanding of current industry standards and accreditation expectations from ASHRAE, CDC, Joint Commission, DNV, and CMS.

The session will cover key considerations for developing and maintaining effective Water Management Programs (WMPs), including risk assessments, documented procedures, and ongoing evaluation. Equally important, you will learn how Water Safety, Facilities Management, and Infection Control teams can strengthen compliance and reduce the risk of waterborne pathogens by sharing documentation and coordinating responsibilities.

Key Takeaways:

• Understand current standards, guidelines, and accreditation expectations that influence healthcare water management practices
• Learn how to develop and implement Water Management Programs with effective risk assessments, documented procedures, and team collaboration
• Explore emerging developments and requirements to keep your facility's water safety practices current and compliant
