Abstract

Building a "safe room" on a Medical Nursing floor to house high-risk patients as well as regular patients required inter-department cooperation and an understanding of the differences between a normal room renovation and that of a safe room. In this article, the author describes the kind of cooperation needed and the steps taken to successfully build and use the new safe room.
