FLS 1. Extinguishers are visible, readily accessible, and mounted no higher than 5 ft. above the floor to the top of the handle?
-
What is the likelihood to harm a patient / staff / Visitor?
- High: Could directly lead to harm without need for other significant circumstances or failures.--Likely
- Moderate: Could cause harm directly, but more likely to cause harm as a contributing factor in the presence of special circumstances or additional failures.--Possible
- Low: Undermines safety/quality or contributes to an unsafe environment, but very unlikely to directly contribute to harm.--Rare
-
Is the problem…
- Widespread: issue is “pervasive at the organization” --Process failure/systemic failure --Majority of patients are/could be impacted
- Pattern: issue has potential to “impact more than a limited number of patients impacted” -- Process variation -- > or = 3 but less than 50% patients impacted
- Limited: issue is a “unique occurrence” -- Outlier -- Not representative of routine/regular practice
-
