Is the hole opening up for life safety citations?

You know, it occurred to me the other evening in the wee small hours that the separation of the Life Safety Code into its own accreditation chapter could have devastating results when it comes to counting RFIs towards conditional and preliminary denial.

 

Prior to this, life safety citations all rolled under EC.5.20 (with maybe slight diversions into EC.5.10). Now we're looking at nine life safety standards to score.

 

Can you imagine if surveyors find stuff in a couple of different directions? You could be dead in the water at the end of day one--ouch, ouch, ouch!
