Critical Incident Policy

Despite thorough planning and risk management, unexpected events such as accidents, natural disasters, or other emergencies can still occur. A robust Critical Incident Policy ensures that your nursery is prepared to respond effectively, minimising risk and providing clear guidance for staff in what can be high pressure situations.

This policy template defines what constitutes a critical incident, such as serious injuries, fire, extreme weather, or security threats, and outlines the procedures to follow.
