DFCI Environmental Health and Safety

In order to promote a safe environment for staff, patients, and visitors, the Institute Safety Committee develops, implements and administers a hospital-wide safety program.  The program is designed to produce safe characteristics and practices, and to eliminate or reduce hazards in the workplace.

EH&S is now located in the Longwood Galleria!  Our new offices are on the Galleria Mezzanine.  To reach us,  enter at the purple door behind Beantown Burrito, or the purple door around the corner from Red Barn Coffee.  Go up half a flight of stairs and you'll see the sign. 

The Safety Office can be reached at ext. 2-3005.
