SafetyManager's
Safety Meeting Kit, " Fire Prevention in Healthcare Facilities,"
looks at how fires start, reviews steps that can be taken
to help prevent fires and discusses what employees should
do in case of a fire emergency. The posters in the kit
emphasize the importance of fire prevention. Among all
the safety problems an employee can encounter, fire can
be the most frightening. Every year fires in healthcare
facilities cause millions of dollars in damage and result
in hundreds of injuries, a number of which are fatal.
Yet many employees do not realize how their own actions,
or inactions, can contribute to the risk of fire.
