Description
A practical, person-centred tool to help services identify, review, and respond to risk with clarity and consistency.
This professionally designed Risk Assessment Template is tailored for use in Supported Accommodation and residential settings, helping teams assess and manage risk in a way that is responsive, transparent, and trauma-informed.
Includes two versions – both designed for individual young people:
-
Focused Version – for key or high-priority risks, ideal for day-to-day use or where concerns are more contained
-
Comprehensive Version – a structured overview covering a full range of potential risk areas (e.g. missing episodes, exploitation, mental health, peer dynamics, online safety, and more)
Also includes:
A Staff Guidance Document to support confident, consistent use of the tool — with clear explanations, best practice tips, and prompts to support professional reflection and decision-making.
Key features:
-
Simple, effective risk rating system
-
Prompts for protective factors, early indicators, and escalation planning
-
Sections for actions, review timelines, and accountable staff
-
Trauma-informed layout and language that supports inspection readiness and reflective practice
Whether used in planning, team meetings, or audits, this tool helps services embed a shared approach to risk that centres the young person and promotes safety without losing sight of potential or progress.
