Fire and Life Safety EOC Inspection Checklist

by Dean Davis, from the Community

This Fire and Life Safety EOC inspection checklist, revised in 2020, helps healthcare facilities assess compliance across critical safety elements. Verify fire extinguishers are visible, accessible, and serviced. Confirm staff familiarity with pull stations and that detectors and sprinkler heads are intact, with required clearances maintained. Check that exits, corridors, and stairs are free of obstructions, and that prohibited locking mechanisms are not used. Validate exit signage, battery backups, and emergency lighting. Review smoke barriers, fire rated, hazardous area, and corridor doors for labeling, self closing, and positive latching. Use this tool to identify risk likelihood and scope, record findings, and improve life safety readiness in hospitals and clinics.

Fire and Life Safety Checklist
This fire and life safety checklist helps facility teams inspect critical life-safety elements across buildings. It covers clear and unlocked exits, unobstructed corridors and stairways, illuminated exit signs, and working emergency lighting. Housekeeping controls include managing combustibles, oily rags, and flammable liquids, with required clearances around sprinkler heads and equipment rooms. Fire prevention and protection checks include evacuation plans, alarm testing, sprinkler and generator maintenance, smoke detector placement, access to fire protection equipment, and annual extinguisher inspections. Electrical safety items verify proper cord use, wiring condition, GFCIs, and protected multi-plug adapters. Hazardous materials sections confirm SDS availability and hazard signage. Use this checklist to spot hazards, assign corrective actions, document compliance, and improve building safety readiness.

Fire Safety Office Audit Checklist
This weekly office fire safety audit checklist helps teams verify core safeguards and compliance in workplace buildings. Inspect escape routes for obstructions, confirm exit signs are illuminated, ensure areas are free of rubbish, and check that fire extinguishers are accessible. Review notice boards for current escape routes, confirm no unauthorized smoking, and assess fire equipment and fire blanket condition. Validate dangerous goods storage, adequacy of signage, and the condition and self closing of fire and smoke stop doors. Check that the evacuation point is displayed, emergency lighting functions, and sprinkler system water and air pressure with a 30 second motor alarm test. Capture other observations and record auditor details and signatures.
