Fires can be devastating, especially in a hospital where a large number of people who need to be evacuated may be vulnerable- immunocompromised, on life support, and incapable of moving on their own. There are special requirements that must be met with while evacuating such people in case of fire emergencies. But before that – “fires must be prevented”.
