Re: Architectural plans and medical institutions



Many organizations are out-sourcing maintenance and anything else they can.
Likely the maintenance group working today won't be here in 30 years when
the plans/blueprints/drawings are needed. And computers change
frequently...would software used today be obsolete in 30 years?  Likely. I
would suspect an archives might be around a lot longer than the maintenance
group that is contracted out for.

Oh no, it's JCAHO!   Don't you love the way people hide during JCAHO
visits?....

The other thing about architectural plans for medical institutions:
Facilities
management often cares for these plans better than we are can.  I've worked
for
several medical institutions that used halon systems to protect these
records.
We should be so lucky with the archives.

But then, in Houston, we're more afraid of flooding than of fires!
