Inspectors found burns risks and unhygienic medication practices at Connolly Hospital in Blanchardstown, Ireland, according to the Irish Times.
Some patients were not adequately protected from burn risks posed by exposed radiators and hot water taps, according to the Health Information and Quality Authority.
It was also found that staff had never actually practised a fire drill, and had no idea how long it might take or how many staff would be required to transfer residents to safety, the article said.
Concerns were also raised over residents’ poor access to washing and toilet facilities.
