Resurrection Hospital Guaranteed Power with Innovative Fuel Program
The wide spread blackouts last year on the East Coast inspired thousands of
organizations to re-assess their ability to maintain power in emergencies. In
blackout situations, many companies cannot afford to be without power, even
for a second.
As a part of their emergency plan, Resurrection Hospital utilizes diesel generators
to immediately provide power to critical life support systems, lighting, elevators,
incubators, surgical rooms and other life-saving hospital equipment. Resurrection
has reserve fuel supplies, but needs emergency refueling within several hours
of the activation of backup diesel generators. To ensure there is no gap in
power, fuel must be available to Resurrection around the clock, every day of
the year.
For guaranteed, priority access to fuel and refueling services in emergency
situations, Resurrection Hospital chose the Fuel Assurance Program from Bell
Fuels. If the hospital becomes dependent on back up generators, Bell Fuels can
quickly deploy its regional fleet to completely refill the fuel supply at the
hospital. The Fuel Assurance Program gives Resurrection Hospital confidence
that it will always have priority access to fuel supplies that keep generators
ready and running in an emergency, allowing the hospital to continuously provide
patient care.
“Our access to power is our ability to save lives,” said Gary Curtin,
Director
of Facility Services at Resurrection Hospital. “The Fuel Assurance Program
at Bell Fuels gives us confidence in our ability to maintain power and allows
us to focus on our patients.”
