PROGRAM OVERVIEW

CMS and Joint Commission surveys place increased emphasis on how health care facilities apply NFPA 101®, the Life Safety Code®, 2012 Edition—not only during surveys but also through daily operations, documentation, and maintenance practices.

This 3-hour joint training brings together experts from BRAND SERVICES and the Door Opening Industry Training Group (DOIT) to provide practical guidance on navigating NFPA 101 requirements for health care occupancies. The program connects code intent to real-world application, helping attendees identify risks, reduce recurring deficiencies, and support defensible life-safety compliance.
