What the standard says:


  • Adnabod a lleihau risg

    6.1 Rhaid i chi gymryd pob cam rhesymol i leihau’r risg o niwed i ddefnyddwyr gwasanaeth, cynhalwyr a chydweithwyr, cyn belled ag y bo modd.

    6.2 Rhaid i chi beidio â gwneud unrhyw beth, na chaniatáu i rywun arall wneud unrhyw beth, a allai roi iechyd neu ddiogelwch defnyddiwr gwasanaeth, gofalwr neu gydweithiwr mewn perygl annerbyniol.

    Rheoli eich iechyd

    6.3 Rhaid i chi gymryd cyfrifoldeb am asesu a fydd newidiadau i’ch iechyd corfforol a/neu feddyliol yn cael effaith andwyol ar eich gallu i ymarfer yn ddiogel ac yn effeithiol. Os ydych yn ansicr ynghylch eich gallu i wneud hynny, gofynnwch i weithiwr iechyd a gofal proffesiynol priodol wneud asesiad ar eich rhan.

    6.4 Rhaid i chi addasu eich ymarfer os bydd eich iechyd corfforol a/neu feddyliol yn cael effaith andwyol ar eich gallu i ymarfer yn ddiogel ac yn effeithiol. Rhaid i'r addasiadau hyn hyrwyddo arfer diogel ac effeithiol. Lle nad yw’n bosibl gwneud yr addasiadau hyn o fewn cwmpas eich ymarfer, rhaid i chi roi’r gorau i ymarfer.
