Risk is part of everyday life, and it is part of every care setting. This course explains what risk assessment means in a care context and why it matters — both as a legal duty and as a core part of person-centred, rights-based practice.
It covers the HSE five steps, the hierarchy of control, dynamic risk assessment, moving and handling, falls, choking, medication risks, lone working, and how to balance safety with rights, choice and dignity. The course keeps both health and safety and person-centred risk in view throughout.
