    Intake & Risk Assessment
  • This risk assessment tool is to be used in identifying safety risks for staff when providing services to participants and is intended to highlight any risks when first engaging with a participant. The risks/hazards included in this template are not an exhaustive list. Your completed risk assessment should reflect all potential hazards to meet your requirements. Where risks have been identified associated to the psychosocial needs or complex behaviour needs of a participant a more specialised risk assessment may be required

  • Risk management plan

    A risk management plan should be developed for any high and extreme risks identified (or lower, as preferred/required), and consists of additional controls that can be implemented to minimise the risk. Timelines and the individual responsible for implementing each control measure should form part of the plan. The plan should be monitored to ensure that agreed actions are completed, review dates should be specified, and the review should measure effectiveness of the control implemented.
