Nursing Home Emergency Management System
We have designed a Nursing Home Emergency Management System dealing with all aspects of Fire Safety, Health & Safety and Emergency Management including, staff training, documentation and evacuation equipment. Having a comprehensive plan in place to ensure that in the event of an emergency the nursing home staff have the knowledge and equipment in place to competently respond and deal as quickly and effectively as possible is a key part of any care plan for your resident.
Residential care facilities such as Nursing Homes are required by the Fire and Rescue Service to have pre-fire planning drawings and supporting documentation submitted. This information gives the operational Fire and Rescue Service personnel information critical to them when arriving at an incident such as entry points, access routes, fire hydrant positions, bypass valve locations, fire panel locations, provision of protected corridors, main electrical isolation points, main gas isolation valve, oxygen storage areas etc.
We can also help you have an up to date Safety Statement, which is a legal requirement under the Safety Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 for all employers. The Centre Safety Statement is a written document which describes how Health & Safety is managed within the Nursing Home.
Phoenix STS works closely with the centre to produce this information, liaises with the Fire & Rescue Service and the Health & Safety Authority to ensure they are satisfied with the information provided. Another benefit of having our system in place is being fully compliant with HIQA in the area of Fire Safety, Health & Safety and Emergency Management.
We offer seven different plants; this allows you to choose the package that is more suitable for your needs.

A Fire Safety Certificate is a certificate issued by the Building Control Authority which states that the works or building to which the application relates will if constructed in accordance with the plans and specifications submitted, comply with the requirements of Part B of the Second Schedule to the Building Regulations 1997.
Since the amendments of 2003 to the Fire Services Act 1981, and the requirement of the Safety Health and Welfare At Work Act 2005 the Fire Service is no longer obliged to provide a “complete evacuation service” for premises placing the onus upon the person with responsibility for the management of fire safety within the organisation.
Everyone has to have the same right of evacuation in an emergency, and the responsibility to ensure this is in place falls upon the person having the responsibility for the management of fire safety within the organisation.
Simply put, pre-fire planning is the process of gathering information before a fire or another disaster occurs in order to be prepared to deal with it once it occurs.
Under Section 19 of the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005, every employer shall identify hazards, assess risks and have a written risk assessment, including any unusual or other risks.

“A person is deemed to be a competent person where, having regard to the task he or she is required to perform and taking account of the size or hazards (or both of them) of the undertaking or establishment in which he or she undertakes work, the person possesses sufficient training, experience and knowledge appropriate to the nature of the work to be undertaken”.
Health and Safety Authority
A Health and Safety Statement is your duty of care to your employees to manage risks and hazards in the workplace. A risk assessment is a combined effort of identifying and analysing potential events that may negatively impact individuals, assets, and the environment; and making judgments “on the tolerability of the risk, based on a risk analysis” while considering influencing factors.
