Fire safety failures in over half of care homes audited in new report

摘要

The Brigade's findings included the following serious fire safety breaches: 1. One in three premises with inadequate or poorly maintained fire doors 2. Widespread confusion about fire evacuation strategies 3. Fire risk assessments being carried out by people without the proper skills and experience 4. Roofs being omitted from fire risk assessments (roof voids often increase the spread and severity of a fire).
