We’re proud to confirm that Ultima Care & Nursing has successfully achieved ISO 45001:2018 certification for our Occupational Health & Safety Management System.
This internationally recognised standard demonstrates our structured, proactive and ongoing commitment to protecting our staff, the people we support, and the wider community.
What is ISO 45001?
ISO 45001:2018 is the global standard for occupational health and safety management systems. It requires organisations to:
- Identify and control workplace risks
- Reduce the potential for accidents and incidents
- Embed health and safety into leadership and governance
- Continously improve systems and oversight
- Evidence compliance through independent external audit
In care, this is especially important.
Our teams work in people’s homes, in the community, and in complex clinical environments. Having a robust, externally audited safety framework ensures we are not reactive — we are preventative.
