I have been doing risk assessments for years and have a NVQ2 in Risk Assessment so i know the process i use is correct, I just find it interesting when speaking to some people and they say, I risk assess all the time but i dont write it down, link outings to parks, new play equipment etc. As i have always been asked to provide risk assessments by Ofsted. I have my annual risk assessments, a list for the back garden of 'check before going out' kind of thing and the same for the lounge and kitchen. I have a RA for each outing and trip we attend/aim to attend, and a daily check list of the house. PLUS a maintenance log book where I record broken toys etc, and a cleaning log of when toys/equipment has been cleaned and I also have an action plans file, so if a notice that some thing does need doing, for example, replace fence pannel, then i write up why and when and date/sign when completed. It helps to keep my home and business in order
