The organization’s fire safety plan identifies • the frequency of inspecting, testing, and maintaining fire protection and safety systems, consistent with requirements; • the plan for safely evacuating the facility in the event of a fire or smoke ; • the process for testing all portions of the plan during each 12-month period; • the necessary education of staff to effectively protect and to evacuate patients when an emergency occurs; and • the participation of staff members in at least one fire safety test per year. A test of the plan can be accomplished in multiple ways. For example, organizations can assign a “fire marshal” for each unit and have him or her randomly quiz the staff about what they would do if a fire occurred on their unit. The staff can be asked specific questions, such as, “Where is the oxygen shutoff valve? If you have to shut off the oxygen valve, how do you take care of patients who need oxygen? Where are the fire extinguishers on your unit located? How do you report a fire? How do you protect the patients during a fire? If you need to evacuate patients, what is your process?” Staff should be able to respond appropriately to these questions. If they do not, this should be documented and a plan for reeducation developed. The fire marshal should keep a record of those who participated. Organizations may also develop a written test for staff to take relating to fire safety as part of testing the plan. คัดลอกมาจาก มาตรฐาน JCI FMS 7-7.2 fire safety ครับ
