Introduction

This is a report where we did some analysis about potential hazards and learned about their precautionary, measure mental & post disaster steps. While it also gives us the concept of regulation influencing the organization’s safety.  

Task 1

Here, we will know about the precautions which should be taken in the case of setting up a health or social care.

P1: Potential Hazard in Health & Social Care Setting

While establishing any medical care or any social care, there can be various problems which should be checked for avoiding further unhealthy situation.  For having a perfect environment for health or social care, this termination of the unexpected problems is very important. Analyzing two scenarios, we have found some misjudgement of the authorities and they are given below:

• Every visitor of any patient should be checked for germ before letting them visiting.
• A health care must have properly used their doors & windows as a precaution of dusts. Extra dust from outside may create an unhygienic environment.
• While talking about any patient, nurses should make sure that the conversation is not heard by another patient. Because it can have effects on the mentality of that patient. Besides, the privacy of other patient is violated here too.
• The nurses should examine and give medicine after washing their hands properly. Otherwise, unexpected germs can affect the patient. We have to remember that extra germ in an already weak body can be devastatingly harmful.
• The fire exit of the health care or social care building should be improvised. It should be easy to use and there should be a clear and broad pathway.
• The placement of a health care or social care should be in a calm place. It helps the patient to recover quickly.
• The staff should be trained properly so that the health care and social care runs properly according to its purpose.

So we should think about these precautions while setting up any health care or social care. Because these cares should have a hygienic and proper environment to maintain the purpose of the organizations (Rasmussen, Rhonda, Mylonas & Beck, 2012).
