This memorandum makes suggestions for hospitals about the steps which could be taken to prevent fires. These include heating, lighting and power; rubbish and litter; access to fire fighting purposes; fire exits marked clearly and not obstructed; hand appliances; fire drills and instruction.
The management committee of the King's Fund produced these notes in consultation with the Chief Officer of the London Fire Brigade to be of service to Hospital Committees when considering the question of fire precautions.
