This checklist helps care providers in nursing and residential homes assess and manage manual handling risks. It guides teams through risk assessment, consideration of appropriate equipment, TILE based training, observation of practice, formal audits and reviews, and verification that inspections and testing are up to date. Use it to embed safe handling procedures in individual care plans, schedule refresher training, and document daily checks. Aligned with the Aviva Loss Prevention Standard V1.3, it supports safer resident transfers, reduced injury risk, and improved compliance across care settings.
