    S3 Kickoff - What’s New with Joint Commission: Recorded at HFIC!

    In this episode of Between the Lines with FGI, cohosts John Williams and Marissa Lamperis Kastrinos are joined by ASHE’s Leah Hummel and Chad Beebe for a conversation recorded live at HFIC. The discussion focuses on the Joint Commission’s upcoming consolidation of standards, set to take effect in 2026, and what these changes mean for health care facilities. Leah and Chad explain the addition of the new National Performance Goals chapter, the Commission’s unique ability to respond quickly to critical safety concerns, and how high-profile incidents can influence survey priorities. They also introduce ASHE’s new survey readiness course, which aligns current and future Joint Commission standards with NFPA, CMS, and other accrediting body requirements.     Sponsored by:   American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE): Optimizing health care facilities    Link to show notes: https://fgiguidelines.org/podcast/s3-kickoff-whats-new-with-joint-commission-recorded-at-hfic/ Learn more about AIA self-reporting LUs: https://fgiguidelines.org/aia-self-reporting-lus/  Connect with us on LinkedIn

    S2 E8 – MRI Quench Pipes: Engineering Challenges and Safety Solutions

    In this episode, Toby Gilk returns to discuss the intriguing and complex world of MRI technology. Learn about the role of superconductivity in MRI machines, the potential hazards of quench pipes, and the importance of proper design to prevent catastrophic failures. Toby explains how superconductivity allows MRI machines to operate efficiently without continuous power but also introduces risks if not managed correctly. Hear about real-world examples of quench pipe failures and the engineering solutions that mitigate these dangers, and gain insights into the latest advancements in MRI technology and how they impact safety protocols in healthcare facilities.   Sponsored by:   American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE): Optimizing health care facilities      Link to show notes: https://fgiguidelines.org/podcast/s2-e8-mri-quench-pipes-engineering-challenges-and-safety-solutions Learn more about AIA self-reporting LUs: https://fgiguidelines.org/aia-self-reporting-lus/  Connect with us on LinkedIn

    S2 E5 – Surfaces in Health Care Settings + Evidence-Based Design

    This episode of Between the Lines with FGI focuses on optimizing surface materials in health care and residential care design. Cohosts John Williams and Bridget McDougall discuss the importance of surface materials in health care settings with Laurie Waggener, the Director of Research for Healthcare at Page. Laurie explains her role in ensuring evidence-based architectural processes and shares insights on the impact of surface materials on patient care, including durability, maintenance, and safety. The discussion also covers the use of UVC radiation for disinfection, the importance of consensus decisions with clients, and how the COVID-19 pandemic influenced surface testing. The conversation underscores the need for materials that balance aesthetics, functionality, and safety in health care environments.    Sponsored by:   American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE): Optimizing health care facilities     Link to show notes: https://fgiguidelines.org/podcast/s2-e5-surfaces-in-health-care-settings-evidence-based-design/ Learn more about AIA self-reporting LUs: https://fgiguidelines.org/aia-self-reporting-lus/  Connect with us on LinkedIn

    S2 E4 – MRI Safety and the Built Environment

    After listening to this episode, you’ll understand why guest Tobias (Toby) Gilk says, “The physics associated with MRI scanners is so otherworldly and so profoundly different from our daily experience interacting with the world that everything seems magic associated with this particular imaging modality.” The profound differences with MRI don’t stop with just the physics; there are a host of built environment considerations for the spaces that house MRIs as well as operational implications for patient and staff safety. Toby gives a quick lesson on how MRIs work, shares a story of how tragedy led to codified safety measures, and answers John and Bridget’s questions about the whys behind the codes.   Sponsored by: American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE): Optimizing health care facilities    Link to show notes: https://fgiguidelines.org/podcast/s2e4-mri-safety-and-the-built-environment-tobias-gilk/ Learn more about AIA self-reporting LUs: https://fgiguidelines.org/aia-self-reporting-lus/ Connect with us on LinkedIn

    S2 E3 – Changes Ahead: Intellectual Property Rights and the Future of the Guidelines

    There’s a seismic shift happening in the codes and standards development legal landscape as courts back away from the longstanding precedent of protecting copyrights. As a result, some entities now post what was protected content, seemingly in partnership with standards development organizations, in order to sell their own products. In reality, standards development organizations like FGI have no oversight on how their code content is used outside of its own platforms and publications. CEO Heather Livingston discusses FGI’s unusual approach to making sure that everyone involved in health and residential care design and construction has access to accurate and complete code requirements straight from the source.    Sponsored by:   American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE): Optimizing health care facilities     Link to show notes: https://fgiguidelines.org/podcast/s2e3-changes-ahead-intellectual-property-rights-and-the-future-of-the-guidelines/ Learn more about AIA self-reporting LUs: https://fgiguidelines.org/aia-self-reporting-lus/  Connect with us on LinkedIn and X (Twitter)

    S2 E2 – Built Environment Impacts on Operations and the Patient Experience

    Woven into any patient’s health care experience is the environment in which they are treated. Questions about cleanliness and quietude appear on the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey; the results of which determine how much funding is provided (or removed) from health care facilities by CMS.   In this episode, recorded at ASHE’s Health Care Facilities Innovation Conference last month (July 2024), guests Jeff O’Neill and Kathy Easter, both of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, engage in discussion about where the patient experience and the Guidelines (soon to be the FGI Facility Code) intersect.       Sponsored by:   American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE): Optimizing health care facilities    Link to show notes: https://fgiguidelines.org/podcast/s2-e2-built-environment-impacts-on-operations-and-the-patient-experience Learn more about AIA self-reporting LUs: https://fgiguidelines.org/aia-self-reporting-lus/  Connect with us on LinkedIn and X (Twitter)
