Fire Risk Assessment
You are legally obliged to undertake a proper and thorough fire risk assessment. Many care providers pay someone to come in and do it for/with them, often through fear of ‘getting it wrong’.
The Mulberry House Fire Risk Assessment CD based resource contains a comprehensive selection of PDFs designed to provide you with the tools an external “assessor” would use, but without the cost of the “assessor”.
Indeed, this thorough care specific fire risk assessment may address issues your ‘assessors’ may not know about because they are not familiar enough with both fire and care provision. Some fire authorities have distributed these to health and social care providers in their area.
