Streamlining life safety system inspections

Electronic inspection reporting can simplify the data collection, documentation and retrieval process


One of the many responsibilities of healthcare facilities professionals is overseeing the inspection, testing, maintenance, repair and regulatory compliance of life safety systems and operations.

An electronic inspection reporting solution can streamline the data collection, documentation and retrieval process, eliminating time delays, compliance issues and other inefficiencies often resulting from manual inspection reporting, the article said.

It also can streamline responsibilities so that a facility with limited staff can track and document follow-up activity on the correction of deficiencies, including the verification testing required within a 45-day period.
