Fire alarms in hospitals

February 2, 2007 7:35am CST
What happens to all the patients if there's a fire alarm in a hospital and it's a real fire? Do all the staff have to wheel out all the patients in comas and things? Or do loads of firemen come along and do the job? It could take too long for them to get there and all the patients could get smoke inhilation or worse...

They just have a lot of problems because it is hard to get all of the people out. They will try more to put the fire out because it is easier than moving all the people.

If its a big fire tho then it will give off a lot of smoke, they would have tp move all the patients if this happened. Im guessing the firemen would do it.
