What Is CHC Certification?
Boaz Construction is proud to hold CHC (Certified Healthcare Constructor) certification through the American Hospital Association (AHA) and the American Society for Healthcare Engineering (ASHE). This credential represents our deep expertise in the specialized, highly regulated environment of healthcare construction.
The Certified Healthcare Constructor designation is the industry’s leading credential for construction professionals working in healthcare environments. It demonstrates proficiency in patient safety protocols, infection control risk assessment (ICRA), fire and life safety compliance, utility interruption planning, and the unique regulatory requirements that govern construction within and around active medical facilities.
ASHE recommends at least one CHC-certified professional on every healthcare construction project — and at Boaz Construction, we go beyond that standard.
Why It Matters for You
Healthcare construction isn’t standard commercial building. It requires an understanding of infection control barriers, negative air pressure systems, HEPA filtration, ICRA tenting, anteroom protocols, and how to maintain safe and sterile environments while work is underway — often just feet from patient care areas.
Our CHC certification means your project team understands these challenges at an expert level. We bring proven knowledge across four core domains: healthcare industry fundamentals, the planning-design-construction process, healthcare facility safety during additions and renovations, and financial stewardship of healthcare construction projects.
What This Means for Boaz Construction Clients
When you partner with Boaz Construction on a healthcare project, you’re working with a team that has been independently tested and certified in the critical areas that protect patients, staff, and your investment. Our CHC-certified professionals ensure your project meets all applicable codes, ICRA requirements, and infection control standards from day one through final closeout.
Whether you’re planning a new long-term acute care facility, a dental clinic buildout, or a renovation within an active hospital, our certification gives you confidence that Boaz Construction has the specialized knowledge to deliver safely and in full compliance.
