Fully agree with you midland retty- sorry for any misunderstanding.
In general within my experience of the care sector there are always generic hazards that are expected as the norm- chain smoking, substance use and abuse, careless disposal of smoking materials, these do not warrant more than a tick in the box on the individual care plan because they are expected and the fire risk assessment will refer to the benchmark risk control measures and systems for dealing with this.
In the case of clients with specific histories or needs for whom the benchmark is inappropriate then either there will be a decision that the individual cannot be offered care or a review of the additonal risk control measures needed to cater for that individual, within the individual persons care plan. The outcome of this may then be an input into the fire risk assessment for the premises.
