Life Safety Code® compliance for healthcare facilities figures prominently into the 4th Annual Hospital Safety Center Symposium May 6-7.
Among the highlights will be Henry Kowalenko, supervisor of the Design Standards Unit at the Illinois Office of Healthcare Regulation, who will present "Anatomy of a CMS Life Safety Code inspection."
Kowalenko will explore how the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) scrutinizes fire protection features in hospitals and offer strategies to better prepare you before the agency shows up--all from his perspective as a CMS-contracted inspector.
Don't forget that you can join us virtually from your office via a live Webcast of the Hospital Safety Center Symposium or in person in Las Vegas. Our in-depth program is a great and affordable way to keep yourself current on important physical environment developments.
