Description:

This one hour presentation by Brad Keyes was part of our Series 3 Infection Prevention Strategies for Ambulatory Surgery Centers conference in 2015. Brad discusses Life Safety Code and compliance to LSC specifically within the ASC setting and how LSC affects infection prevention strategies.

Learning Objectives for Part 1

• Recognize that CMS takes exception to NFPA's definition of Ambulatory Healthcare Occupancy.
• Understand that proper air pressure relationships help prevent contamination problems.
• Realize Life Safety Code compliance is just as important in ASCs as anywhere else; perhaps more so.
