The Risk Assessment Health And Social Care document serves as an essential tool for healthcare and social care providers operating in New Zealand's regulated healthcare environment. It is designed to be used when organizations need to systematically evaluate and manage risks in their service delivery, ensuring compliance with the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015, Health and Disability Services Standards, and other relevant legislation. The assessment covers various aspects including clinical safety, workplace hazards, patient care risks, and operational challenges. It is particularly important for healthcare facilities seeking certification, implementing new services, or conducting regular safety reviews. The document incorporates New Zealand-specific healthcare requirements, including cultural safety considerations and Treaty of Waitangi principles, making it specifically tailored for the New Zealand healthcare context.
