Safeguarding Vulnerable Users in Mental Health Facility Bathrooms - Specification of Anti-Ligature Dispensers

Description

This CPD will offer advice on helping to safeguard vulnerable users of washrooms in mental health facilities. Washrooms by their nature are private spaces and often used unsupervised to maintain patient dignity, therefore, every effort needs to be taken to make these spaces safe, and prevent users from self-harm with fixtures and fittings that are designed to prevent a ligature being attached. This seminar identifies the risks, the design guidance available and how anti-ligature dispensers work.
