NHS HTM 05-01 — Managing healthcare fire safety

Provisions the documents cite: fire safety management in occupied healthcare premises; the Fire Safety Manager and Fire Safety Adviser roles; control of works

What it requires

How fire safety is managed in occupied healthcare premises: the organisation's fire safety policy and management structure, the Fire Safety Manager and the Fire Safety Adviser, fire risk assessment, staff training, and the management of building works so that compartmentation, detection and evacuation routes are protected while contractors are on site. Edition date to be confirmed at the next scan.
