Legislative Framework

Nursing homes in Ireland must comply with multiple fire safety and health & safety regulations:


HIQA Regulation 28 - Fire Precautions

The Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) Regulation 28 requires registered providers to ensure adequate precautions against the risk of fire. This includes fire safety management, means of escape, fire detection and alarm systems, fire-fighting equipment, and staff training.


Fire Services Acts 1981 & 2003

These Acts place duties on persons having control over premises to take reasonable measures to guard against the outbreak of fire, ensure the safety of persons in the event of fire, and provide fire safety procedures.


Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005

This Act requires employers to ensure the safety, health, and welfare of all employees at work. It mandates risk assessments, safety statements, and appropriate training.


Our compliance packages are designed to meet all of these requirements in an integrated, cost-effective manner.
