Sessions include:
HSCS '09: The Joint Commission's New Scoring System
Safety professionals have their hands full in 2009 with The Joint Commission's overhaul of the physical environment requirements. Not only have the environment of care, life safety, and emergency management standards been broken out into separate chapters in the accreditation manual, but surveyors are also using a brand new scoring model that centers on the "criticality" of deficiencies.
HSCS '09: Better Ways to Integrate Emergency Operations Plans with your Community
The Joint Commission and the federal National Incident Management System (NIMS) mandate cooperative relationships between hospitals and community authorities when it comes to disaster plans. Local organizations must play a role in a healthcare facility's emergency management efforts.
HSCS '09: Life Safety Drawings: The Backbone of Rated Wall Maintenance
A good set of life safety drawings sets the foundation for tracking compliance with rated walls. Safety professionals first need to know the locations of these walls in order to effectively maintain them. While you probably realize not all rated walls are the same, did you know that not all two-hour, fire-rated walls have the same purpose?
HSCS '09: New Ideas to Educate Workers in the Challenging Regulatory Environment
Many safety professionals know firsthand how limited their time is for safety education during new employee orientation and annual refresher sessions. There are additional ways to achieve staff education goals while also complying with myriad regulatory requirements in this regard. Learn new techniques to better train employees about safety concerns
HSCS '09: Critical Environment of Care Topics from Mac's Safety Space Blog
Steven MacArthur's popular "Mac's Safety Space" blog (www.hospitalsafetycenter.com/blog) tackles all things safety. In this session, you'll learn about blog topics that have received many hits from readers or that continue to be nagging concerns for safety professionals.
HSCS '09: Meeting the Challenges to Life Safety Compliance
The Joint Commission and other regulatory agencies mandate that hospitals maintain their facilities in accordance with the 2000 edition of the Life Safety Code®. This session discusses strategies to meet the challenges to life safety compliance through different methods of evaluation, the process of documenting life safety deficiencies, and the alternative approach to compliance through equivalencies.
HSCS '09: Strengthen the Links Between HICS, NIMS, and The Joint Commission
Emergency planners in hospitals must stay familiar with The Joint Commission's emergency management standards, NIMS, and possibly the Hospital Incident Command System (HICS). Learn sensible strategies to meet the mandates of all three sources, including where overlap compliance exists among NIMS, HICS, and The Joint Commission.
HSCS '09: Answering your Concerns: Q&A Panel with Our Experts
