Who Needs Fire Marshal Training in Care Homes?
This course is essential for anyone working in a care setting where vulnerable individuals rely on staff for safe evacuation, including
- Fire Marshals / Fire Wardens
- Care assistants and support workers
- Senior carers and team leaders
- Nurses and clinical staff
- Maintenance and facilities teams
- Managers and responsible persons
- Anyone involved in emergency planning or evacuation
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, employers must appoint and train competent persons to assist with fire safety duties. Care homes also have additional responsibilities due to reduced mobility, cognitive impairment, and complex evacuation needs.
