As one of the world's most vital sectors, healthcare has various equipment and infrastructure that require a constant and reliable power supply. Even a power shortage or blackout for a few moments can immediately have devastating consequences. A continuous power supply helps healthcare workers take better care of patients and ensures that they can quickly answer the calls for emergency.
As a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, Vertiv Philippines Inc. believes that an uninterruptible power supply is paramount in providing these facilities with the emergency power it needs during power outages.
When hospitals do not have backup power supplies, it can have adverse effects on many people in the facility. Unlike other businesses, hospitals would have financial and work losses and potential downtime cost, patient dissatisfaction, and productivity issues due to power cuts.
Hospitals are usually equipped with backup generators to ensure it has a power supply in case of emergencies. However, it can take time to power the whole facility, which can be costly for the people inside.
Installing UPS systems around these healthcare facilities can prevent costly downtime since it can provide instant, short-term power supply until the generators are fully operational.

However, it ensures that scenarios like critical surgery operations, patients with life-support, and other urgent care instances are safe from power outages. Simultaneously, it also protects equipment where vital information of patients from electrical damages that causes data losses.
