and Renovation 1
This matrix is to be used to set guidelines on the appropriate infection prevention and control procedures required for the type of activity depending on where the activity will occur. The Infection Prevention and Control representative may add or omit requirements specific to a project. Recommended barriers are to be installed before construction begins.
Type A Inspection and Non-invasive activities.
Includes but is not limited to removal of ceiling tiles for visual inspection (limited to 1 tile per 50 square feet), painting, wall covering, electrical trim work, minor plumbing and activities that do not generate dust or require cutting of walls. Type B Small scale, short duration activities that create minimal dust. Includes but is not limited to installation of telephone and computer cables, access to chase spaces, cutting of walls or ceiling where dust migration can be easily controlled at the source. Type C
Any work that generates a moderate to high level of dust or requires demolition or removal of any fixed building components or assemblies.
Includes but is not limited to sanding walls, for painting or wall coverings, removing floor coverings, ceiling tiles and millwork, new wall construction, minor ductwork or electrical work above ceilings, major cabling activities and any activity that cannot be completed within a single work shift within the set containment. Type D
Major demolition and construction projects
Includes but is not limited to activities that require consecutive work shifts, heavy demolition or removal of a complete ceiling system and new construction.

Construct physical barrier with anteroom if possible before construction begins. D. Seal holes, pipes, conduits and punctures appropriately. E. Maintain negative air pressure @ minimum .03 inches water gauge within work site using HEPA-filtered air filtration units. F. Attach 24/7 auto dialer monitoring to system and provide emergency power. G. Personnel clothing leaving work site should be free of loose soil and debris. (2) 2'x4' adhesive mats should also be used. H. Tools and carts are to be damp wiped before leaving the construction area. I.
Vacuum work area with HEPA-filtered vacuums daily. Filters are to be sealed in bags for site removal. J. Lightly mist debris
and contain
construction waste in tightly covered containers. Debris should be removed daily, or more frequently, if necessary. Do not board elevators containing patients when removing wastes. K. Cover transport receptacles or carts. L. Wet mop or wipe down area immediately adjacent to the construction area and just inside, with owner-approved disinfectant daily.

before construction begins. B. All items in previous class (es) must also be performed. C. Construct anteroom and require personnel to pass through this room so they can be vacuumed using a HEPA- filtered vacuum before leaving work site or wear cloth or paper coveralls that are removed each time they leave the work site.
