COVID-19 Services
COVID-19 Assessment, Re-entry Planning, and Decontamination Verification Services
The world was not prepared for this unprecedented pandemic. Fortunately, CDMS has teamed up with CEA, a well-prepared company that specializes in addressing the health & safety issues related to contagious diseases in addition to their long-established experience in testing and decontamination services.
We offer unique skills and expertise in:
- Assessment for the presence of COVID-19,
- Development of appropriate Facility Re-entry Procedures, and
- Verification of decontamination activities performed at a facility.
Our Team is being led by our health science expert, Dr. Robert Palermo, M.S., Sc.D. Dr. Palermo has experience over two decades leading both emergency preparedness and human health & safety responses to several contagions including West Nile Virus, Smallpox, Anthrax, and Legionella at over 12 hospitals and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
Our Verification Team members have experience conducting airborne and surface sampling for the presence of endotoxins and mycotoxins in hospital surgical suites, hospital laboratories and patient areas.
We routinely conduct sampling for the presence of airborne bacteria and fungi in public buildings, schools, universities and colleges, and research laboratories.
We have performed both viable and nonviable fungal spore trap analyses in schools, banks, and public buildings and have conducted indoor air and potable water sampling for Legionella and other organisms.
We use the latest verification sampling methods and on-site monitoring instruments to rapidly verify COVID-19 sampling efforts in real time. These protocols have been designed to comply with FDA, CDC and WHO guidelines and requirements. Our team employs a tiered verification approach to assess the presence of and/or confirm that your facility decontamination and cleaning is effective at removing COVID-19 from facility surfaces.
For clean rooms, hospitals and more sensitive facilities, we provide additional laboratory verification to provide further assurance regarding cleaning success.
The Team stands ready to provide you with the assurance that your facility is safe for your employees, visitors and customers. Our services include:
