Prime Power's Emergency Power Support for Healthcare Facilities
In healthcare, power is more than a utility—it's a lifeline. When the lights go out, every second counts. From life-support equipment to surgical suites, from patient records to medication storage, uninterrupted power is critical to patient safety. Prime Power has spent more than 40 years making sure healthcare facilities never miss a beat, delivering Emergency Power Supply System (EPSS) solutions that keep care flowing in more than 300 hospitals and medical centers nationwide.
Why EPSS Matters in Healthcare
Power outages in hospitals aren't just inconvenient—they're dangerous. That's why Prime Power's work goes beyond maintenance and repair. We help ensure compliance with NFPA 99, 101, and 110 and follow all Healthcare Accreditation guidelines (CMS, Joint Commission, DNV, etc.) regarding EPSS. This gives facilities peace of mind that their systems not only work, but work safely, reliably, and in full alignment with accreditation standards.

Case Study: Nonprofit Hospital Strengthens Its EPSS
A leading nonprofit hospital recently faced aging infrastructure that no longer met current compliance requirements. Prime Power partnered with the facility team to upgrade its emergency power system without disrupting patient care.
Key project highlights included:
- Installation of a new 750 kW generator
- Major ATS and switchgear upgrades
- Remote monitoring and annunciation systems for compliance
- Coordination with hospital staff to complete the project on an accelerated timeline, with no interruptions to patient services
The result? A modern, compliant EPSS that enhanced both reliability and safety—reinforcing the hospital's mission to provide uninterrupted, high-quality patient care.
