Description:
This presentation will review changes made to NFPA 101®, Life Safety Code® since the 2012 edition, with a focus on health care occupancies. Many of the changes made between the 2012 and 2021 editions are beneficial; however, some requirements have become more restrictive. Health care facilities personnel continually are asked to do more with limited resources, and this presentation will discuss how changes to the Life Safety Code may offer solutions for deficient conditions that require substantial financial investment to comply with the 2012 edition.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify beneficial changes made in NFPA 101-2015.
- Identify beneficial changes made in NFPA 101-2018.
- Identify beneficial changes made in NFPA 101-2021.
- Justify existing facility conditions based on NFPA 101 editions subsequent to 2012.
