Trusted Emergency Lighting Maintenance for Hospitals

Patients may have mobility difficulties or require assistance from clinical staff during an evacuation. Reliable emergency lighting helps provide visibility along escape routes and within relevant areas when normal lighting fails.

Requirements depend on the building, its layout and fire risk assessment. Emergency lighting may be required in areas such as wards, corridors, stairways, treatment areas, reception spaces and other relevant parts of escape routes.

Monthly function tests should be carried out, together with an annual full-duration discharge test lasting three hours. These checks help confirm that emergency lighting and its backup batteries remain capable of operating correctly.
