Proactive Preparedness: Ensuring Compliance and Best Practice for Inquests

Inquests, the associated media attention and satellite issues have become a big problem for Registered Providers of Social Housing (RPs). In many cases RPs are simply not prepared for the crisis situation they find themselves in or how to manage the unknown risk.

This webinar will be an opportunity to hear about the wide spectrum of issues to consider when faced with unexpected death, how to deal with them and take learning from the situation.

There will be opportunity for discussion.

The seminar will cover:

• Crisis and risk management
• Internal investigations
• Inquests and coronial process
• The interface between health and safety issues and criminal prosecutions
• Policies and procedures
