The Fire Warden Training course is tailored for healthcare professionals designated as fire wardens, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to manage fire safety effectively in their workplaces. Healthcare settings present unique fire safety challenges, making it essential for fire wardens to ensure the safety of patients, staff, and visitors while adhering to UK fire safety regulations, including the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Participants will gain a thorough understanding of fire dynamics, hazard identification, and fire risk assessments. The course covers the proper use and maintenance of fire safety equipment, including extinguishers, alarms, and emergency lighting systems. A key focus is on designing and implementing evacuation plans tailored to healthcare environments, with special considerations for vulnerable individuals. Participants will also learn to conduct fire safety inspections, organise drills, and foster a proactive fire safety culture within their organisations.
