Achieve Life Safety Code® compliance—with help from frontline staff and senior leadership

Many Life Safety Code® violations escape the everyday scrutiny of front line staff members, but corridor clutter is one top five life safety violation in which both nurses and hospital leadership can play a significant role in compliance.

On Monday September 20, Greeley consultants Brad Keyes and Ken Rohde will host a 90-minute Webcast discussing the top life safety violations and how to change the culture in your facility in order to maintain compliance. Keyes, a life safety expert, will focus on strategies to eliminate corridor clutter. Rohde, a process improvement expert, will support this approach with tools to change behavior among staff members and provide effective solutions going forward.
