Attachment 2 DEPARTMENT OF VETERAN AFFAIRS STATEMENT OF WORK Room Isolation and Containment Equipment: AnteRoom, Lite Barrier and HEPACART Background: The VA Connecticut Healthcare System s West Haven campus is seeking to purchase room isolation and containment equipment for use during maintenance activities. This purchase will include two (2) sizes of lite barrier door assemblies (LiteBarrier), (3) anteroom door and frame modules (AnteRoom) of each size, and (2) mobile air containment units (HEPA Cart). Justification: This equipment is needed to efficiently perform maintenance activities in patient areas of the medical center. The equipment will allow maintenance personnel to create an Infection Control compliant environment for work to be performed in. The LiteBarrier door assemblies will be used as temporary barriers to isolate appropriate maintenance or construction activities from other spaces. These temporary but reusable barriers will help reduce noise, dust and infection risks while work is on-going. The AnteRoom modules are designed to be connected to the outside of a door frame and serve as a transition to effectively create an infection control ante room. The HEPA Carts will be utilized to allow for ceiling tiles to be opened and overhead work to proceed without additional infection control barriers.
