To help serve the patient most efficiently, many medical centers house multiple services in a single location including patient rooms, cafeterias, generators, laboratories, diagnostic rooms, and even helipads. While these capabilities and others are designed to serve the patient, these multifunctional facilities also challenge those responsible for fire protection.

Fires in these buildings can be particularly dangerous due to the presence of oxygen and other flammable substances and the challenge of evacuating patients who may not be ambulatory. Between 2004 and 2006, there was an average of 6,400 fires in medical facilities each year that were responsible for approximately 5 civilian fire deaths, 175 injuries, and $34 million in property loss annually (NFPA).
