Risk Assessment
Risk rated, planned and reviewed
Each risk is rated by a named clinician with the reasoning and the plan written down. The higher the rating, the sooner it comes back for review.
What it does
Built into the day-to-day
- Suicide, self-harm, violence, absconding, vulnerability, neglect and falls
- Low, moderate, high and extreme ratings
- Formulation and mitigation plan on every assessment
- Review dates that shorten as the rating rises
- The Broset Violence Checklist, scored as it is filled
- A new assessment supersedes the old one without erasing it

Questions
Frequently asked
Does a high rating change the observation level?
The observation level is set by a clinician and linked to the assessment behind it, so the reason for watching a patient closely is always on the record.
Can we use our own rating scales?
Yes. Scales are data, so a facility can add the instruments it is licensed to use and link responses to an assessment.
