in hallway and supervisory signal from room detection to release door HO’s (which would address comment #20).
Provide soft chime/soft strobe in hallway
Delete pull station at door
Note: the remaining system remains as-is. Facility intends to update their Facility FA to implement full private mode status within 2years (approximate) of this project. The one location
of soft chime/soft strobe in hallway is acceptable to both City Fire Marshal and State DOH/CRS AHJ’s for this project.

Sheet E2.1 indicates CR on both sides of the exterior door. Architect/Engineer to verify and indicate the desired Door Security functions at this door. This issue has been discussed
with Charles. Charles and Mary should discuss this door function in detail (all hours of the day considered-both wandering AND security considered). We are intending to maintain building
egress while also allowing wandering abilities for residents. This stated, security for staff and residents are also considered, thus, what the Facility determines as their desired
function for this door is of paramount importance. 2015 1010.1.9.3

Compliance with the comments above provided by the Department of Health, Construction Review Services, are necessary for this facility to meet the cited requirements of the applicable

relieve the facility from the responsibility to meet the requirements of any applicable federal, state or local regulations. In the event of conflicts between other jurisdictions and
these written comments, the most stringent shall apply. The building owner or operator is ultimately responsible for safety and insuring the building is in compliance with all applicable
laws.
