Managing the quality of our environment is required to avoid the harmful effects of agents that may be found in the air, whether chemical, biological or the result of human activities. Keeping an eye on environmental change is important. Changes in the environment can have critical effects in our work place, our people and our patients. At MTA, we test to OSHA, NIOSH, CETA and ACGIH Requirements.

Chemical and biological hazards exist in many locations throughout the healthcare setting and can cause a wide range of health issues. Operating rooms, laboratories, and pharmacies can have potentially dangerous levels of toxic chemicals or biological agents. MTA will work with you to evaluate and identify potentially harmful agents in order to comply with regulatory requirements and standards. Monitoring programs are tailored to your specific needs. Our attention to detail will support the safety of your employees and patients.
