PAT Testing for Care Homes in Oxford

Care homes have a duty of care to protect vulnerable residents, staff, and visitors – and electrical safety plays a key role in meeting that responsibility.

At Oxford PAT Testing, we provide professional, fully insured PAT testing services for residential care homes, nursing homes, and supported living facilities across Oxford. We work sensitively and efficiently to ensure all your portable appliances are safe, labelled, and compliant – with minimal disruption to residents or staff.

Whether you’re preparing for a CQC inspection or just keeping on top of health and safety requirements, we’re here to help.


Why PAT Testing Matters for Care Homes in Oxford

Care homes use a wide range of electrical appliances – from hoists, heaters, and medical devices to staffroom kettles, TVs, and hairdryers. These are often used frequently and by multiple people, increasing the risk of wear and faults.

PAT testing supports your responsibilities under the Electricity at Work Regulations and helps you:

  • Reduce the risk of electrical fires or injuries
  • Maintain a safe environment for vulnerable residents
  • Comply with CQC, HSE, and insurance requirements
  • Provide peace of mind for families and inspectors

Safety and reassurance go hand-in-hand in the care sector.
