No facility type carries a higher water safety burden than healthcare. Hospitals, long-term care facilities, and outpatient medical centers serve patients whose immune systems may be severely compromised — making them acutely vulnerable to waterborne pathogens like Legionella, Pseudomonas, and non-tuberculous mycobacteria that healthy individuals might resist without incident.

Regulatory expectations for healthcare water management have intensified significantly. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requires all healthcare facilities to have a formal water management program in place. ASHRAE 188 provides the technical standard for Legionella risk management, and AAMI ST108 governs water quality for hemodialysis and sterile processing — each demanding a level of rigor that goes far beyond standard commercial water treatment.

RW Water Services brings specialized expertise in healthcare water management to hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, dialysis clinics, and long-term care facilities across the New York metro area. Our ASSE-certified professionals design and manage programs that satisfy CMS, ASHRAE 188, and AAMI ST108 requirements while protecting the patients and staff who depend on safe water every day.
