    Non-compliant staircase furniture strength at Scraptoft Court

    Wider context from the report

    “(4) Evidence indicated that the staircase furniture at Scraptoft Court did not meet strength requirements as stated in the plans for construction, nor British Standards and Building Regulations. I note that Scraptoft Court was constructed in the mid 1990s and shortly thereafter a further home was built called Syston Lodge. Is the staircase at that location compliant with the requirements referred to. ”

    Conflicting falls-risk and manual-handling assessments for resident mobilisation
