Description
Summary:碩士 === 大葉大學 === 管理學院碩士在職專班 === 105 === The primary objective of risk management is to identify potential hazards and prevent irreparable losses from major disaster. This paper discusses risk management from the perspective of fire safety in Elderly Nursing Institutions. The research process was segmented into four issues, including risk identification and crisis prevention, risk evaluation and mitigation, risk monitoring and simulation, and result evaluation and documentation. Through in-depth interviews and participant observation, this paper recognizes that while fire safety and risk prevention is a high priority of Elderly Nursing Institutions, most behaviors and processes are driven by bureaucracy and are formalistic in nature. In particular, the selection of training participants, methods and processes have been limited by the enterprises’ focus on profits and the existing laws and regulations. Therefore, this analysis provides various suggestions for the development of a proactive and comprehensive risk prevention and simulation program to effectively identity, manage and mitigate risks. Elderly Nursing Institutions can increase their responsibility in fire safety and risk management. In addition, regulatory authorities should refine fire safety laws relating to implementing facility inspections, improving operational security and increasing public awareness.
