If you are located in California this is a MUST read document.
Facilities must develop and adhere to policies and procedures that inhibit microbial growth in building water systems that reduce the risk of growth and spread of legionella and other opportunistic pathogens in water.
Protecting patients, residents, visitors, and staff starts with robust, enforceable policies that actively inhibit microbial growth across your building water systems—reducing the risk of legionella and other opportunistic pathogens before they can spread. A disciplined water management program, backed by clear procedures, monitoring, and rapid corrective actions, not only safeguards health and preserves your reputation, it also strengthens regulatory compliance and lowers the cost of preventable outbreaks. Make prevention your default: formalize responsibilities, verify controls, document results, and train your teams so safe water is a daily practice, not a one-time project. Don’t wait for an incident to expose gaps. Take the next step now—audit your current policies, refresh your water management plan, and put a validated monitoring schedule in place.
