NFPA 99, Healthcare Facilities Code includes requirements for Healthcare facilities, materials, equipment — including power strips and cylinder storage, according to an article on the FacilityCare website.
Complying with these requirements helps make accreditation surveys go more smoothly, the article said.
The use of relocatable power strips is detailed in Chapter 10 of NFPA. They are permitted to be used in conjunction with patient care-related electrical equipment under certain conditions.
Chapter 11 covers the requirements for gas equipment. NFPA 99 bases cylinder storage requirements on the volume of gas in the cylinders stored.
