Fire Safety Challenges in Hospital Safety Index (HSI)
Hospitals are a symbol of social welfare and the last refuge of patients, which is the most important issue of the health system. Patient safety is the first and most important issue for the health system. Before COVID-19, the World Health Organization (WHO) defined the Hospital Safety Index (HSI) to measure hospital preparedness for disasters. During the COVID-19 crisis, hospitals faced many ...
متن کاملThe Fire and Flammability Niches in Plant Communities
We construct a model of a multispecies forest that is often affected by major fires and explicitly incorporates life-history attributes of trees that are related to fire—flammability and susceptibility to fire. The model is used to explore coexistence mechanisms in forests; two fire-dependent coexistence mechanisms were identified. The first allows coexistence along a temporal axis since the la...
متن کاملBark flammability as a fire-response trait for subalpine trees
Relationships between the flammability properties of a given plant and its chances of survival after a fire still remain unknown. We hypothesize that the bark flammability of a tree reduces the potential for tree survival following surface fires, and that if tree resistance to fire is provided by a thick insulating bark, the latter must be few flammable. We test, on subalpine tree species, the ...
متن کاملFire Safety
References 17–13 ire safety is an important concern in all types of construction. The high level of national concern for fire safety is reflected in limitations and design requirements in building codes. These code requirements are discussed in the context of fire safety design and evaluation in the initial section of this chapter. Since basic data on fire behavior of wood products are needed t...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Fire Safety Checklist for Dormitories
Background;Despite advances in technology, people are still exposed to fire hazard. Students can be one of the most important exposed groups. Therefore, fire safety inspection should be established in dormitories. The aim of this study was to develop a fire safety checklist for fire safety inspection in dormitories. Methods; This study was as a tool development followed by a cross-sectional st...
