Ligature Risk Auditing

We provide a comprehensive Reduced Ligature Risk Audit service specifically designed for mental health and specialist healthcare environments, with a particular focus on the correct installation, suitability, and ongoing condition of anti-ligature products.

 

Our audits ensure that fixtures and fittings are not only compliant with relevant safety standards but are also installed strictly in accordance with manufacturers’ fitting instructions. This is essential in maintaining the integrity and effectiveness of reduced-ligature solutions, helping to safeguard service users while supporting healthcare providers in meeting their duty of care.

 

Through our auditing process, we assess whether products are fit for purpose within the specific healthcare environment, correctly installed, and functioning as intended.

At Point 5 Plus, our assessments consider the wider environment, including:

  • Correct installation of anti-ligature products
  • Suitability of products for the clinical environment
  • Signs of tampering, damage, or modification
  • Product lifecycle and end-of-life considerations
  • Environmental risks created through refurbishment or maintenance work

By reviewing the entire room environment rather than isolated fixtures, we are able to identify risks that may otherwise be overlooked
