Course Description:
The Facility Guidelines Institute recently convened an Emergency Conditions Committee of researchers, architects, providers, and authorities having jurisdiction to collect case studies and evidence-based information, identify solutions, craft recommendations, and establish minimum standards to address a wide variety of emergency conditions facing care providers.
