Hospitals & Clinics
Hospitals carry the highest life-safety risk
In a hospital, many occupants cannot leave on their own. Oxygen-enriched areas, heavy electrical loads in ICUs and operation theatres, and kitchens and laundries under the same roof all raise the risk. That is why hospital fire safety goes beyond equipment — it depends on how quickly trained staff can move patients to safety.
In August 2026 the Maharashtra government ordered fire, electrical and structural safety audits of all government, private and charitable hospitals, with re-audits every six months, according to news reports. Hospitals are also covered by the Maharashtra Fire Prevention and Life Safety Measures Act, 2006, which requires a twice-yearly maintenance certificate (Form B) from a Licensed Agency.
Areas we pay special attention to
- ICUs, NICUs, operation theatres and recovery
- Oxygen manifold rooms and pipelines
- Electrical panels, UPS and DG rooms
- Kitchens, laundries and medical stores
- Horizontal evacuation routes and compartments
- Staff fire training and mock drills
Audit scope

Typical findings
What Audits Commonly Find in Hospitals & Clinics
Typical examples of gaps found in audits of similar buildings — not a specific client. Your report lists what we actually find at your site, with photos.
| Area | Typical finding | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| ICU / OT | Extension boards daisy-chained behind equipment | Overheating and fire |
| Oxygen manifold | Oil, grease or combustible storage near cylinders | Intense fire risk |
| Corridors | Beds, wheelchairs and trolleys parked in escape routes | Slow evacuation |
| Fire doors | Wedged open or closers removed | Smoke spreads between wards |
| Night shift | Few staff know the evacuation plan | Delayed response |
| Records | No drill records or service reports on file | Weak compliance position |

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a hospital be audited?
According to news reports of a Maharashtra government directive (August 2026), hospitals are expected to have fire, electrical and structural audits every six months. Separately, the twice-yearly Form B maintenance certificate applies under the Fire Act. We can align both so you are audit-ready all year.
Do you also do electrical safety audits?
Yes. Our electrical safety audit covers panels, cabling, earthing and protection devices — the leading cause of hospital fires — and can be done in the same visit.
Can you train our nurses and ward staff?
Yes. We run on-site fire safety training and mock drills by shift, including horizontal evacuation of bed-bound patients.
Will the audit disturb patient care?
No. We plan the visit with your administration, avoid critical areas during procedures and only run tests at agreed times.
