Phigenics has developed the Phigenics Water Management Subscription in response to the increasing incidence of disease resulting from water contaminated with waterborne pathogens in healthcare facilities.  The Phigenics Water Management Subscription is designed to help healthcare executives and administrators prevent and respond to waterborne pathogen disease resulting from contaminated water in their facilities.   

People get legionellosis when they inhale aerosols (water mist) that carry Legionella bacteria. People can be exposed to aerosols from mist-producing devices (especially water heaters and air-conditioning systems) in their homes and in workplaces, hospitals, or other public places.

What is HACCP?

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) is a systematic approach to identifying and controlling hazards (microbiological, chemical or physical) that pose a danger to the preparation of safe food. HACCP seeks to control the safety of ingredients and supplies coming into a food business and what is done with them thereafter. The implementation of HACCP is a legal requirement for many American and most European food.

A comprehensive water management plan helps kickstart a successful water management program. This plan includes clear information about how a facility uses its water, from the time it is piped onto the facility through disposal. Knowledge of current water consumption and its costs is essential for making the most appropriate water management decisions.
