Supported Accommodation Fire Risk Assessment

Professional Supported Accommodation Fire Risk Assessment Training

A supported accommodation fire risk assessment is a vital part of maintaining a safe living environment for vulnerable residents while ensuring compliance with UK fire safety legislation. At FMSCS, we provide specialist training designed for supported accommodation providers, housing associations, supported living services, charities, local authorities and property managers responsible for managing fire safety.

Our course provides practical knowledge and guidance on carrying out effective fire risk assessments, identifying potential hazards and implementing appropriate control measures to protect both residents and staff.

Why Fire Risk Assessments Are Important

Supported accommodation often houses individuals with varying levels of independence and additional support needs. Because of this, fire safety planning requires careful consideration beyond that of standard residential properties.

A comprehensive supported accommodation fire risk assessment helps identify potential risks, ensures evacuation procedures are suitable for occupants and demonstrates compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and other relevant guidance.

• Fire safety legislation and legal responsibilities

• How to complete a fire risk assessment

• Identifying fire hazards and ignition sources

• Assessing risks to vulnerable residents
