Advanced Healthcare Solutions
When delivering control and integration solutions to healthcare facilities, providing systems that improve patient outcomes while also meeting the technical and safety requirements demanded by patients, hospital staff, and regulators is critical. We know the importance of getting it right so providers can focus on care, not room conditions.
ATS provides complete control systems for facilities, and integration and retrofit solutions to existing systems. Utilizing BACnet technologies and integration gateways, even legacy proprietary systems can add modern technology solutions. Below are three common scenarios in which ATS can enhance existing healthcare facilities.
1. Addition to Existing Facility
• Install modern controls in new addition with interface to existing plant.
• Maintain existing plant controls.
St. Clare Hospital | Lakewood, WA
ATS has worked with St. Clare Hospital for over 10 years to ensure their facility is best-in-class for patients and providers. ATS retrofitted the legacy Siemens control system to a BACnetbased solution while utilizing the existing legacy terminal unit controls. This retrofit has allowed the hospital to maintain its initial control investment as they plan for future additions and technology.
2. Addition to Existing Facility with Central Plant Improvements
• Retrofit and optimize central plant.
• Interface with legacy controls in existing facility.
• Unified front-end interface.
Cascade Valley Hospital | Arlington, WA
ATS has provided facility solutions for the Cascade Valley Hospital for over 15 years. ATS has updated the original proprietary control system in the hospital to an open-protocol BACnet-based system. This was a staged system upgrade that utilized existing terminal unit controllers as different zones in the building were upgraded. The hospital can now take advantage of modern technology and facility strategies to provide superior service to its patients.
3. Add/Modernize OR Suite within Existing Facility
• ATS provides the latest in OR design and controls to reduce the risk of HAIs, optimize energy efficiency, and improve patient outcomes.
• Compatible with any existing BACnet-based system.
