Managing Health & Wellness During a Pandemic

As the world continues to navigate impacts of COVID‐19,
Warrenstreet remains committed to doing our part to help
slow the spread of the virus and keeping the health and well‐
being of our staff, clients and communities, our top priority.
Since early March, our staff have been working remotely with
great success and attitudes that continue to support a culture
of flexibility, innovation, and ability to support and adapt to
everchanging marketplace conditions. While we all yearn to
“return to normal”, the question remains ‐ what will our new
normal as a society and partners of the A/E/C industry look
like in the weeks, months, and years ahead? Plans to ready existing buildings and facilities of all types
for the safe return of users are regularly being discussed, evaluated, and prepared for. We continue to
monitor new information and guidelines published by the Centers for Disease Control, the World Health
Organization and other Local and State Authorities entrusted to protect, safeguard and guide our efforts
as we return to our daily lives and plan for the future.

With 30 years‐experience working in a variety of industry environments including extensive healthcare
and medical field work, our knowledge of incorporating sterile healthcare design practices and ensuring
occupant safety within any environment is always at the forefront of our designs and services.
Warrenstreet will continue to be a resource to assist those in need in determining what is appropriate
for your space and environmental systems to keep the people who occupy your buildings safe. There is
no “one size fits all” answer to address the unique needs and varied impacts of the COVID‐19 pandemic,
but working together we are confident in our abilities to assist you in shaping the safeguard solutions
you seek and deserve.

As we move forward collectively, some small suggestions for consideration of current or future
modifications to further promote environments of health and wellness include:

 Expanding and Supporting Remote Business Culture Practices

 Minimizing Areas of Direct Contact Through Use of Hands‐Free Sensors
for Toilets, Lavatories and Urinals

 Review and Consideration of Ongoing Improvements in UV Technologies

 Monitoring of Occupant Circulation and Movement Patterns and Reduction of
Points of Interaction

 Increased Ventilation and Filtration, Minimizing Mixed Airstreams &
Sensor Installation to Monitor Air Quality

 Reduction or Disablement of Demand Controls and Extend AHU Operations
for Shift Occupancies

 Review and Consideration of Space Humidification Options

 Regular Sanitation of all Equipment, Surfaces, Communal Spaces and Workstations
