Guide to Planning Hospital Resilience

By Burns Engineering September 19, 2023 30 MIN

Hospitals must prepare for an increasingly uncertain future. Extreme weather events, utility outages, and supply chain disruptions are occurring with greater frequency and intensity.

To bolster resilience, healthcare systems are reevaluating capital plans and maintenance protocols. Many are investing in infrastructure upgrades that go above and beyond code requirements.

Burns is partnering with our healthcare clients to enhance the resilience of critical infrastructure systems. With the help of new incentives and financing strategies, proactive healthcare leaders can:

  • Hedge risks of infrastructure failure
  • Avoid costly emergency repairs
  • Prevent equipment downtime
  • Reduce operating costs and environmental impacts
  • Demonstrate to the community that hospital facilities can be counted on — no matter what disasters the future brings
