This ligature risk assessment checklist helps healthcare teams identify and mitigate potential ligature points across behavioral health environments. It guides reviews of bedrooms, bathrooms, shared rooms, and corridors, covering windows, doors, hinges, restrictors, ceilings, vents, light fittings, fixtures, furniture, beds, cabinets, rails, and electrical equipment. Use it to document findings, note anti ligature features, and record actions to improve patient safety in mental health units and similar settings.
