Medication & Risk Checklists
Identify Risk Before It Shows Up in Your Report
Unmanaged risk is one of the most common reasons providers receive poor CQC ratings, especially when it comes to medication, safeguarding, and audits.
These targeted checklists help you proactively identify and address hidden risk areas before they become inspection findings.
- Inadequate– addressing urgent compliance gaps
- Requires Improvement– breaking cycles of repeat safety concerns
- Good – strengthening assurance in key risk areas
- Outstanding – reinforcing safe care and cultural confidence
Best Used With:
RootFix Diagnostic™
– to uncover recurring or systemic risk patterns
RiskScan Map™
– to visualise risk zones by severity and likelihood
Focus Framework™
– to define goal-driven improvement actions
Cultural Diagnostic™
– to assess staff perception of risk and safety
Toolkit Includes:
Review medication safety practices step by step
Pinpoint risk gaps in safeguarding, lone working, and incident response

Why It Matters:
Many inspection outcomes are lost not because care is poor, but because risks are undocumented, unmanaged, or misunderstood.
These checklists help you take control, document clearly, and lead with confidence.
