Top 3 Challenges Healthcare Facility Managers Face in U.S. Hospitals
Healthcare facility managers play a crucial behind-the-scenes role in ensuring hospitals are safe, efficient, and compliant. Today, they face three major challenges:
Aging Infrastructure – Many U.S. hospitals still rely on decades-old systems that are costly to maintain and incompatible with modern healthcare technologies.
Regulatory Compliance – Navigating strict and ever-changing codes from bodies like TJC, CMS, and OSHA demands constant vigilance, training, and system audits.
Sustainability vs. Cost Pressures – Managers are under pressure to reduce energy costs while meeting sustainability goals, requiring smart investments in energy-efficient systems and green practices.
These challenges aren’t just operational — they directly impact patient safety, hospital performance, and long-term resilience.
