When outbreaks of airborne diseases occur, government agencies and health care organizations need to be ready to slow its spread and treat infected patients immediately. Rapidly deployable negative pressure isolation shelters from BLU-MED Response Systems are crucial to any swift and effective response.
BLU-MED medical shelters equipped with negative pressure isolation systems exceed the requirements for Airborne Infection Isolation (AII) and manage the three elements of indoor air quality (particles, biologicals, and gaseous volatile organic compounds [VOCs]). These medical shelters can be used on their own or easily scaled to create isolation wards and mobile hospitals.
What’s more, the shelters can be set up in as little as 30 minutes, are designed to endure snow loads of up to 20 PSF and wind gusts of up to 100 MPH, and can support both short- and long-term isolation and quarantine operations.
