The State of Washington granted a perfect score to Forks Community Hospital after conducting a room by room inspection of the entire hospital. In addition, they also reviewed records for fire drills, fire sprinkler system maintenance and fire alarm system testing and operations.
A perfect score on this department of health survey, which is performed by the state Fire Marshall, is highly unusual although not unusual for our local hospital.
The hospital has received this award on several occasions which speaks highly of the professionalism and dedication of the facilities department to patient life safety.
Forks Hospital CEO David Selman told the group, “Perfection doesn’t exist in Healthcare, but excellence does.”
