Hospital Decontamination Without Compromise: Protecting Patients, Staff, and Equipment
This post concludes our hospital decontamination blog series, following Part 1: Rethinking Hospital Decontamination and Part 2: Inside the Protocol: A Hospital SOP for Dry Chemical Decontamination.
FAST-ACT August Event Highlights: Supporting First Responders Nationwide
This August, the FAST-ACT team was on the road providing hands-on training and support to first responders facing today’s most urgent chemical and hazardous material threats.
Inside the Protocol: A Hospital SOP for Dry Chemical Decontamination
In the face of chemical incidents, hospitals are often the first point of contact—before any decontamination protocols have been applied. For regional emergency department staff, this poses immediate risks: volatile chemicals, systemic toxicity, and potential secondary contamination that could impact both patients and staff. A fast, reliable, and adaptable protocol becomes essential.
Not All Dry Decontamination Is Created Equal: What to Look for in a Real Solution
Not all dry decontamination tools perform the same. Some are built to absorb or contain, while others are designed to neutralize the threat entirely. If your team is deciding between dry options, here’s what to know before making the call.
Rethinking Hospital Decontamination: Why Dry Decon Belongs in Your Emergency Plan
In the event of a chemical incident or mass casualty event, hospitals must act quickly to protect patients, staff, and infrastructure. Traditional water-based technical decontamination has long been a standard protocol, but it brings limitations—especially during high-pressure scenarios where rapid, scalable response is critical.
