Legionella Risk Assessments and Testing for Care Homes, Dental and GP Practices. ACOP L8 Compliant, Trading Standards Approved, Trust Mark Certified and Water Safe Registered.
Health and care sites by their very nature present an increased risk of Legionella bacterial infection and can never be "low risk". You must take into account patients, residents, high-risk equipment and not just the sites hot and cold water system. These requirements are found in both the HSE's ACOP L8, HSG 274 and HTM 04-01 which is a requirement of CQC registration. Both documents state enhanced performance criteria for health & care sites such as increased hot water temperatures.

Our Service
Our assessors will measure the performance of your systems against the requirements of the HSE's ACOP L8 or if you are a health and care site against the requirements of Department of Health and Social Care's HTM 04-01. We will also inspect any control and prevention records you may have to help assess the risk at the site.
Once the risk is assessed, a written risk assessment will be produced which will include an "Action Point List" and a site specific Legionella Control Scheme with our recommendations of measures to carry out at the site to minimise the risk of Legionella.
