Life Safety Code & Health Care Facilities Code Requirements

Moreover, the life safety code (LSC) is a set of fire protection requirements that provide a reasonable degree of safety from fire. It covers construction, protection, and operational features designed to provide safety from fire, smoke, and panic. Furthermore, the health care facilities code requirements (HCFC) is a set of requirements intended to provide minimum requirements for the installation, inspection, testing, maintenance, performance and safe practices for facilities, material, equipment and appliances.

Fire Prevention Strategies

Likewise, it is important to have a written and oral strategy within your healthcare organization to know what to do in the event of a fire. As previously mentioned, a fire protection plan must be written, retained in the workplace, and made available for employee inspection. However, a business with ten or fewer employees may disclose the strategy to them orally.
