Plateau Medical Center is a critical access hospital that services many healthcare needs including emergency and inpatient/outpatient care to the Oak Hill, West Virginia area and surrounding communities.
Plateau Medical Center adheres to the national standards and practices audited by The Joint Commission, which includes life and fire safety inspections.
In doing so, the medical center must inventory, test and inspect all life and fire safety devices and systems and capture information to comply with The Joint Commission formatting regulations and standards.
Fire & Life Safety America met with key members of Plateau Medical Center’s staff to develop a proactive approach to meeting the life and fire safety needs of their healthcare facility, including sprinkler, fire alarm, extinguisher, and special hazard inspections. Together, we developed a plan of action to maintain a consistent schedule for fire and life inspections while inventorying the devices during every inspection.
After each inspection, our qualified technicians work with the medical and maintenance staff to correct any deficiencies in a timely manner. After the inspection and deficiency work is complete, FLSA staff meet to review The Joint Commission binder material as well to review accuracy, format, and inventory of devices.
Fire & Life Safety America is a one-stop-shop vendor for all of Plateau Medical Center’s life safety systems, including inspection, installation, and service work. At FLSA, we work together with hospitals and health systems to find the best fire and solutions for them.
