The rain is back but warmer weather is coming, and it pays to be prepared.
For care services, rising temperatures bring a different set of risks around hydration, food safety and infection control. Getting the right policies in place now means your team is ready when it matters.
We've got three essential resources to help:
🌡️ Heatwave Policy & Procedure - supports staff in recognising and responding to heat-related risks, including dehydration, heat exhaustion and changes in service user wellbeing
đź§Ľ Infection Prevention & Control Policy & Procedure - clear guidance on hygiene standards during warmer conditions, when the spread of bacteria and illness is more likely
🍽️ Food Safety & Hygiene Policy & Procedure - ensures food is stored, prepared and handled safely, with a focus on temperature control and hygiene when it matters most
All three are available to download from our shop - written in plain, practical language to support confident compliance.
