Ensuring safe water systems in healthcare facilities is critical to protecting patients, staff, and visitors, against Legionella risks. However, traditional risk management is often ‘time-consuming, fragmented, and reliant on outdated processes’, claims LegionellaDossier.
Recognising this challenge, Gert Oussoren founded LegionellaDossier in 2016 ‘to revolutionise water safety compliance’. The company explained: “Originally a university project automating temperature measurements, it has since grown into a leading digital solution that helps Facilities managers, Compliance officers, and service-providers, streamline water safety management.
“For healthcare estates teams, Legionella risk assessments are just the start. The challenge is ensuring that risks translate into clear, trackable actions to maintain compliance and prevent outbreaks. LegionellaDossier connects assessments to real-time compliance tasks, ensuring:
- Automated tracking of flushing regimes, temperature monitoring, and remedial actions.
- Seamless reporting, aligned with HTM 04-01 and L8 guidelines.
- Full oversight, with a digital platform that eliminates delays and errors.
“By shifting compliance from reactive to proactive, NHS Trusts, private hospitals, and healthcare estates teams, gain control over their water safety responsibilities.”
LegionellaDossier reportedly simplifies this by:
- Replacing paper records with digital logbooks.
- Integrating IoT sensors for real-time water system monitoring.
- Providing actionable insights through smart dashboards.
LegionellaDossier streamlines compliance by allowing teams to complete tasks directly on site.
“LegionellaDossier replaced our paper-based records, giving us real insights and enabling evidence-based decisions,” explained John O’Riordan, head of Building and Estates at the Royal College of Surgeons of England. “We can now track minor issues before they become systemic failures, improving oversight and compliance. As a standards organisation, having this level of data-driven decision-making is invaluable.”
LegionellaDossier is described as ‘a blueprint for smarter, safer water management’.
