1. IntroductionBuildings or parts thereof occupied or operated to be occupied by emergency sheltersshall be continuously patrolled by a fire guard. Every area of the building shall bepatrolled at least once every hour. F-02 holders may additionally be assigned to monitorthe areas in a shelter in which a fire protection system is out of service for fires.Fire guards are responsible for the safety of all shelter occupants and employees byeliminating fire hazards and assisting in the evacuation of occupants during drills and incase of an emergency. Fire guards are responsible for making sure that fire safetyregulations are being complied with in the shelter. They should be familiar with andknowledgeable of the location and operation of all fire alarm systems in the shelter in whichthey are employed. Fire guards are supervised by the impairment coordinator, Coordinatorof Fire Safety & Alarm Systems or Fire Safety Director on the premises. Fire guards mustalso maintain records of their patrols.1.1 F-02 Certificate of Fitness RequirementsBuildings operating as emergency shelters have the unique requirement of fire guards onthe premises at all times. Fire guards in shelters have a larger span of responsibility thanfire guards in most other occupancies. It is imperative that fire guards make consistentpatrols as required, and are also knowledgeable about the procedures to follow whenperforming a fire watch in the case of an out-of-service situation.Prior to theimplementation of the F-02 Certificate of Fitness, fire guards in homeless shelters who wereon the premises performing patrols on a daily basis held F-44 Certificates of Fitness forFireguards for Shelters. F-44 Certificate of Fitness holders were NOT qualified to performfire watch in an out-of-service condition. In the past, if such a situation did occur, thebuilding owner would be required to ensure that F-01 Citywide Fire Guard for ImpairmentCertificate of Fitness holders were on the premises to perform fire watch during the out-ofservice condition. The F-02 Certificate of Fitness eliminates the gap between the F-44 andF-01 Certificates of Fitness. F-02 holders are qualified to work in shelters with homelessoccupants on a daily basis and to perform hourly patrols, and are additionally qualified toperform fire watch in an out-of-service situation. The information below explains therelationship between the different Certificates of Fitness:F-44 Fireguards for SheltersF-01 Citywide Fire Guard for Impairment Perform hourly patrolsSpecific to sheltersNot qualified to perform fire watch inout-of service situations Citywide Certificate of Fitness (nonpremise-related)Qualified to perform fire watch in outof-service situations This book is provided to the public for free by the FDNY.7

3. Fires in Homeless SheltersHomelessness is a significant problem in New York City, and the number of men, womenand children that need shelter continues to rise. In 2013, it was estimated that over 45,000people spent the night in a New York City homeless shelter and approximately 19,000 ofthose people were children. In 2012, just 35% of families with children who applied to stayin city shelters were accepted, down from 52% in 2007. The number of people seekinghousing in shelters in the city is increasing significantly, and with it comes new fire safetyconcerns. It is imperative that fire guards ensure that shelters are maintained in a mannerthat provides for the safety of the residents and employees in the event of a fire or otheremergency, to immediately correct or report any fire safety violations that arise and to befamiliar with the emergency preparedness plan.Unfortunately, in New York City and elsewhere, disastrous fires have occurred in homelessshelters. Fortunately, the lessons learned from these fires can be used to help preventthem from occurring in the future. Three significant fires that occurred in homeless sheltersare listed below:Fire Summary:Location: Homeless shelter in Paris, TexasDate: 2009A 42 bed shelter housing 28 men caught fire due to ignition of a table inside the shelter thatwas piled high with donated clothing. More than 20 residents evacuated the shelter as aresult of smoke and flames after several men attempted to extinguish the flames with pansof water. There was a heavy smoke condition in the shelter, making it difficult to see andeven more difficult to evacuate. Five men who lived on the second floor were killed in theblaze. An investigation of the fire determined that the building had no sprinkler system, firealarms or smoke detectors. Records indicated that the shelter hadn’t been inspected for atleast five years, even though inspections were required on an annual basis. The shelter wasused as a drop-off point for paper products, rags, clothing, furniture and other material.Lessons Learned: Periodic Fire Department inspectionsshould be conducted as requiredExcess debris and improper storage isa fire hazardLack of fire prevention devices in theshelter increases the probability offatal firesA firefighter outside of the shelter after the Paris, Texas fireThis book is provided to the public for free by the FDNY.12

Fire Summary:Location: Homeless shelter in Bronx, NYDate: December 7, 2012 and December 9, 2012At this Bronx, NY shelter, improperly stored mattresses were ignited in two separateincidents only two days apart. The first incident occurred when a child was playing with amatch, and set a mattress on fire on the second floor of the building. This was a small firethat resulted in no injuries and was quickly extinguished. The second fire started whenanother child was playing with matches who also ignited a mattress that had been stored inthe building’s lobby. Smoke and flames from the resulting fire spread into the stairwell andthe upper floor hallways. There were no building wide alarms or hallway smoke detectors inthe building to notify occupants of the fire. Two building occupants tried to use portablefire extinguishers to extinguish the fire but found them empty and inoperable. With thesmoke and flames having filled the hallways, many occupants tried to escape by using thefire escapes. However, occupants reported that some of the fire escapes were broken,having missing steps and jammed ladders. The fire resulted in four adults and two childrenbeing seriously injured. It was determined that the mattresses that were involved in thesefires had not been properly removed from the building. Instead, they were stacked in thelobby and propped against walls in common areas of the building. It was also determinedthat the fire escapes were not in good working order, many of the fire extinguishers were notoperable, and that the building did not have a fire alarm or sprinkler system. All of thesefactors contributed to the devastation that resulted from this fire.Pictures show the interior of the Bronx, NY shelter after the second mattress fire. Therewas severe smoke and fire damage in the hallways and stairwells.Lessons Learned: Excess debris and improper storage presents a fire hazardLack of a building wide fire alarm system will cause significant delays inimplementing a building evacuationFire escapes must be inspected to ensure that they are in working orderThis book is provided to the public for free by the FDNY.13

Fire extinguishers must be visually inspected monthly to ensure that they are inworking orderFire Summary: Location: Homeless shelter in New York, NYDate: August 28, 2012A homeless shelter in New York City caught fire and required complete evacuation. The firestarted when a lit cigarette left unattended by a tenant ignited a mattress on the fourthfloor. The fire was quickly extinguished by the building’s sprinkler system. One residentsuffered from and was treated for smoke inhalation. Fortunately, the fire was confined toa single apartment. The shelter had recently been fined more than 45,000 by theDepartment of Buildings for safety violations, including a violation for failure to providesprinkler protection. Records show that the building had seven active building violations atthe time of the fire.Lessons Learned: Periodic Fire Department inspections should be conductedIgnition sources, such as lit cigarettes, should not be left unattendedFire safety education may be beneficial to homeless shelter residentsPicture shows firefighters in the street near the New York, NY shelter after the fire was extinguished.The fire was ignited by an unattended cigarette.All three shelter fires demonstrate how important it is for shelter staff to be proactive. Fireguards and other safety staff should make it a priority to identify any potential fire safetyviolations and correct them before they are identified by the Fire Department or BuildingsDepartment.This book is provided to the public for free by the FDNY.14

In the absence of a specificdesignee, the building owner shall be considered the impairment coordinator. All sheltersrequire either an F-80 or F-58 holder on the premises at all times depending on the type offire alarm system installed. F-80 holders are required in any building or occupancy requiredto have a one-way voice communication system, regardless of occupancy classification, andthat is operated or occupied for more than fifteen persons for a period of more than 30 days,including emergency shelters.The Certificate of Occupancy is the official document that establishes the maximumnumber of occupants authorized to be in the shelter. If the Certificate of Occupancyestablishes the lawful occupancy as being more than 15 persons, an F-80 C of F holder isrequired, even if there are actually less than 15 persons in the building at any particulartime. Any shelter that is required to or voluntarily installs a fire alarm system with two wayvoice communication will require a Fire Safety Director on the premises.The F-02 Certificate of Fitness holder will take direction regarding their responsibilities fromtheir supervisor.
