BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION
The students and clients served by Hillcrest Educational Centers do not typically have serious medical problems or conditions that would require sophisticated or specialized medical equipment or equipment associated with life support. The utilities and utility systems required for the care and services of Hillcrest students and clients are those that are associated with routine behavioral care and treatment, and education of children. No utility systems are used by Hillcrest for purposes of life support, infection control or support for medical equipment. Hillcrest utilities are exclusively used for environmental support (temperature control, lighting, water distribution), communications support (telephone, intercoms, computer network) and safety systems (fire/smoke detection and notification).
