Why you need it

  • The people you cook for are more at risk

    Older people and people with weakened immune systems are more likely to become seriously ill from food poisoning and infections, so food safety and infection control matter even more.

  • Inspectors check it

    In England, the Care Quality Commission checks that care is safe, including preventing and controlling infection, that people are protected from abuse, and that their nutrition and hydration needs are met.

  • Allergens and safeguarding

    Residents' allergies and diets have to be right every time, and kitchen staff should know how to spot and report a safeguarding concern.
