Nephros, Inc. has expanded its water-safety support capabilities following the ASSE 12080 Legionella Water Safety and Management Specialist Certification earned by Brianne McGuire, Director of Business Development. The certification strengthens the company's ability to provide consultative support to healthcare facilities and other complex buildings seeking to reduce waterborne pathogen risk and adds specific proficiency in the development of effective Water Management Programs. This new capability marks a meaningful extension of Nephros' field support for customers seeking more robust water safety programs.
In addition to point-of-use filtration solutions, product installations and replacements, as well as public education, Nephros can now provide a direct Water Management Program development service. Water Management Programs offer a structured framework for identifying water-quality risks, establishing control measures, assigning responsibility, and defining ongoing monitoring and response. The company believes this offering will create additional value for customers while opening a new avenue for revenue generation through chargeable consulting service.
Nephros considers this support expansion to be differentiated by the depth of practical knowledge informing it. Besides the new ASSE 12080 certification, Ms. McGuire brings broad experience in technical concerns, waterborne risk, current guidance and standards, and industry best practices born out of direct engagement with healthcare facilities and other regulated environments. Her leadership of the Nephros Water Institute and other company public education initiatives has further expanded the company's perspective on how complex water safety risks are understood and addressed in practice.
"Water management planning is a natural and important extension of our current customer care and engagement," said Robert Banks, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nephros. "We believe this new capability will allow us to engage more deeply in a facility's decision-making process, while offering a service guided by both certified proficiency and comprehensive knowledge of the unique challenges faced by healthcare entities." The company's expanded services come at a time when water safety management has become increasingly critical for healthcare facilities and other regulated environments.
