Health care facilities have their own regulations, to go along with the general OSHA requirements. The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (Jacho) is the primary one, but there are others.

This podcast takes a deeper dive into a very critical aspect of Health Care’s facility security challenges and focuses on Special locking and delayed egress. In this Podcast, we will define what Special Locking and Delayed Egress is all about. We will discuss when and where to use it. We will talk about how this might affect Fire Safety at the facility. Another very important aspect we will discuss is what steps you need to take in your facility if you are considering installing locking devices. The importance of developing both a testing program, and an accurate inventory of all the related devices will also be explained.
