Occupancy Readiness

Open Safely
with Confidence.

A new hospital doesn’t get a grace period. Surveyors, patients, and regulators expect every system to work on opening day. Oncore’s New Facility Preparedness Evaluation covers air quality, water safety, HVAC performance, Life Safety, and accreditation documentation before the building goes live.

Everything a new facility
needs before day one.

A coordinated evaluation across air, water, Life Safety, HVAC, and accreditation, delivered as a single engagement rather than six separate vendors.

01
Life Safety & Joint Commission Preparedness
Pre-occupancy review of Life Safety compliance and Joint Commission readiness: systems, documentation, and physical environment all verified against accreditation standards before the first patient arrives.
→
02
Particulate & Fungal Element Monitoring
Baseline and ongoing monitoring for particulate matter and fungal elements during the transition from construction to occupancy, confirming the facility meets safe air quality thresholds for patient care.
→
03
Pressure & Air Exchange Evaluations
Exterior entrance and interior pressure evaluations along with air exchange confirmation, verifying that HVAC systems are performing as designed and that pressure relationships protect sensitive patient care areas.
→
04
Ductwork & HVAC Inspection
Physical inspection of ductwork and HVAC system components to confirm cleanliness, proper installation, and readiness for patient care operations prior to occupancy.
→
05
Legionella Assessments & Waterborne Pathogens Program
Pre-occupancy Legionella risk assessment and development of a Waterborne Pathogens Program, a regulatory requirement for healthcare facilities that must be in place before opening.
→
06
Utility Systems Maintenance Program Development
Development of a full Utility Systems Maintenance Program covering every building system, structured to satisfy Joint Commission and CMS requirements the moment the facility opens.
→
Opening Day Ready

A facility is only ready when every system can be proven safe.

Roadmap
From Hard Hats to Healing

A four-phase path
to a safe opening.

01
Phase 01
Pre-Occupancy Baseline
Air, water, pressure, and Life Safety baselines established while the building is still in the contractor's hands.
02
Phase 02
Construction-to-Care Transition
Particulate and fungal monitoring, ductwork inspection, and HVAC verification as crews demobilize and equipment goes live.
03
Phase 03
Survey-Ready Documentation
Reports formatted for Joint Commission, CMS, and AHCA. Every system documented to the standard surveyors expect.
04
Phase 04
Day-One Operations
Waterborne Pathogens Program and Utility Systems Maintenance Program in place the moment the doors open.

Why Oncore

Why hospitals call us
before they open.

01
One Vendor, Every System
Air quality, water safety, Life Safety, HVAC, and accreditation readiness: Oncore covers it all in a single coordinated engagement instead of six separate contracts.
02
Reports Written for Surveyors
Every deliverable is formatted for Joint Commission, CMS, and state regulators, not just internal use. On opening day, your documentation is already survey-ready.
03
Florida Track Record
Oncore has managed pre-occupancy evaluations for some of the largest new healthcare openings in the state, including the Taneja Center at AdventHealth and BayCare Wesley Chapel.
04
On-Site From Baseline to Handoff
We don't review plans remotely. Our team is in the building during the construction-to-care transition, running the monitoring and producing documentation on the ground.
