Forde Park Care: Nursing and Retirement Homes

Newton Abbot, South Devon

Personal Care Retirement Home
Fire training for our staff

Members of staff from both the Nursing Home and the Retirement Home have recently taken part in the latest fire training session, held by Paul Brown of Firex (www.firetraining.me.uk ). 

This is part of our ongoing commitment to ensure staff are fully trained to deal with such an emergency.  Fire training is held every sixmonths for all staff, and every three months for staff who are on nightduty.  

As part of the last training session in May, the staff had the chance topractice on real fires (in the safety of our carpark and under Paul's watchful eye) with fire extinguishers and fire blankets.
