Hospitals & Healthcare FPL Energy Services

Accidents, lightning and high winds can cause power disturbances at all hours of the day and night, whether you're there or not. Loss of power can occur at any time causing production downtime or the loss of sensitive inventory. FPL's Power Monitoring service allows you to be ready for the unexpected. For a small monthly fee added to your electric bill, FPL will install a special meter that monitors voltage conditions at your hospital or healthcare facility. In the event of a power outage, the meter automatically alerts both FPL’s trouble office and you via text message or email.

Case Study: Hospice of Palm Beach County was undergoing an extensive, two-year, 12,000 square foot structural expansion.

Concern: Hospice depends on highly sensitive electronic equipment and some areas are unmanned at certain times. They must ensure high-quality care and fully functioning facilities at all times.

Solution: Hospice enrolled in Power Monitoring services.

Result: Since enrolling, Paul Broggi, Hospice Facilities Management Director said, "There have been occasions when power disturbances have knocked out HVAC system off-line. The email alert from FPL's Power Monitoring service allows us to check these systems before the occupants of our facility are impacted."
