Preventing Fire. Protecting Lives. Ensuring Safe Care Environments.
Fire safety is a critical responsibility in health and social care. Fires can spread quickly, putting vulnerable individuals, staff and property at serious risk — particularly in environments where people may have limited mobility or require support to evacuate safely. Our Fire Safety Awareness in Health and Social Care course equips care staff with the knowledge, awareness and confidence to prevent fire risks, respond appropriately in an emergency, and support safe evacuation procedures in care settings. This training helps organisations protect lives, meet legal obligations and demonstrate strong fire safety practice during inspections.
