Course Outlines:

This course standard was originally created to curate and record the expanding and growing documents coming from the original NFPA Committee on Hospitals. Because healthcare operations have such a unique and specialized mission, that special NFPA committee realized that they needed a specialized standard that addressed those specific needs and hazards. Today, this standard covers everything from pipe marking requirements to safe storage of flammable materials and everything in between. Illustrations of risk management from the real world will be provided and delegates will be encouraged to contribute examples and illustrations from their own experiences.
