During a
hospital's normal operations, a long list of Life Safety Measures
protects the safety of patients, visitors, and those who work in the
hospital. They include everything from exit signs and clear pathways to
egress points, to fire protection systems and smoke barriers, to
evacuation plans. But when
construction, renovation, or extensive maintenance brings additional
complexity to operations, a new level of safety activities must be
added.
Interim
Life Safety Measures (ILSM) are incorporated to address issues created
by the work activity. ILSM have been identified by The Joint Commission
and the National Fire Protection Association to compensate for hazards
caused by Life Safety Code deficiencies or construction activity.
An effective ILSM program provides the necessary protection with zero disruptions to patient care and hospital operations. In our experience, the most practical programs involve six steps. The safety experts at Safety Management Group have prepared an article that examines each of those six steps and how they may impact the life safety of your patients, staff, and visitors.
