SAVE 15% and be prepared for CMS audits, plan health care facility projects, budget appropriately, and conduct inspections with the bestselling Print formats of:
- The 2012 edition of NFPA 101: Life Safety Code. This edition raises the bar for occupant safety in all types of new and existing buildings including health care occupancies. Major changes in the Code help increase protection to people from fire and related hazards. Revisions include requirements that allow more home-like environments for nursing homes and are more reflective of the design and operation of other health care facilities.
- The 2012 edition NFPA 99: Health Care Facilities Code. Introducing a groundbreaking shift to a risk- vs. occupancy-based approach, NFPA 99 reflects a centralized health care environment where it is the risk that a procedure poses to patients and staff, not the location where it is conducted. This edition introduces new chapters on security, fire protection, and information technology; plus updates to Chatper 5, Gas and Vacuum Systems and Chapter 6, Electrical Systems.
