As part of the QRV, managers will be asked about environmental checks. It is the manager's responsibility to arrange for staff to carry out monthly fire safety checks in conjunction with and approval from the Trust safety team.

All managers of buildings, departments or clinical areas (or local responsible persons) must follow Fire Safety policy V7 5.14 which includes an awareness of fire safety checks. 

Where there are premises housing more than one team, it is important that liaison takes place to ensure that appropriate fire safety arrangements are developed and implemented.
