Guidelines around management of areas affected by water damage.

[Houston, Leanne (BHH)]

Hi

I was just wondering if anyone has a policy or guideline that outlines the actions required in a hospital environment post flooding or water damage that they would be willing to share.

We are currently trying to put together a guideline for staff to encourage reporting of such issues and give some clear recommendations around management of areas post flooding/water leaks specifically in relation to water damaged building materials and flooring (mostly carpet).

Regards

Leanne
