Healthcare-associated infections caused by construction activities can have life-threatening consequences for vulnerable patient populations. MAC Safety develops infection control programs for healthcare construction that systematically assess, mitigate, and monitor the infection risks associated with construction activities in and around active patient care areas.
MAC's infection control programs cover ICRA methodology implementation, containment barrier design and specification, air quality management strategies, environmental monitoring protocols, construction personnel training, and the coordination procedures that ensure construction contractors and hospital infection prevention teams communicate effectively throughout the project.
Each infection control program integrates with the NIXN platform for documentation and monitoring. Daily barrier inspections, air quality measurements, containment breach events, and corrective actions are captured digitally — creating the systematic infection prevention documentation that supports facility accreditation and demonstrates compliance with CMS Conditions of Participation.
