About this file
This is a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) document from Edward Hines Jr. VA Hospital establishing procedures for implementing interim life safety measures (ILSM) during construction projects and Life Safety Code deficiencies.
The SOP outlines eleven administrative measures to temporarily compensate for significant life safety hazards: ensuring free and unobstructed exits with additional personnel training; maintaining emergency services access; ensuring fire alarm, detection, and suppression systems are operational with temporary equivalents when impaired; constructing smoke-tight temporary partitions from noncombustible materials; providing additional firefighting equipment and personnel training; prohibiting smoking throughout the facility and construction areas; implementing strict storage, housekeeping, and debris removal practices; conducting minimum two fire drills per shift per quarter; increasing hazard surveillance with special attention to construction areas; training personnel to compensate for impaired structural features; and conducting organization-wide safety education programs. The Safety Section holds overall responsibility for developing, implementing, enforcing, and evaluating ILSM effectiveness, while service and section chiefs responsible for construction projects must ensure accurate preparation and timely submission of ILSM Construction Project Evaluation Worksheets at least two weeks before construction begins. Safety personnel conduct daily site inspections during construction, documented on ILSM High Hazard Inspection Reports, with Police Service conducting weekend and holiday inspections. Fire watches are implemented on a case-by-case basis using a decision grid. The SOP was effective October 20, 2020, with recertification scheduled for October 31, 2025, and is governed by NFPA Life Safety Code 101 and Joint Commission Environment of Care Standards.
