  4. Contact the ECU to review the plans after they are delivered. Inspections by ECU may occur at 50% or 80% or project completion. The inspector will require a ladder on-site for above the ceiling inspections.

ONLY the primary hospital contact should e-mail HSLCARP@health.mo.gov to schedule the 100% inspections conducted by the Bureau of Hospital Standards (BHS).

Hospital Preparation for 100% Inspections:

  • An onsite licensure inspection MUST be successfully completed before patient care or use of occupied space can occur.
  • Contact BHS at least four (4) weeks prior to 100% completion to schedule the licensure inspection.
  • Keep BHS informed of any timeline changes.
