Lone Working in Health and Social Care
Lone working in the heath and social care sector is high risk, perhaps more so than any other sector.
The breadth of roles, environments, service users, and staff make predicting and controlling the risks very difficult, and adding working alone into the mix only makes it more dangerous.

In this blog we will discuss the main hazards faced by lone workers in the health and social care sector and give some tips for reducing the risk.
