This elderly home safety checklist helps aged care and nursing home teams assess safety across the facility. It covers entry areas, internal floors, hallways, exits and doors, windows, ventilation and noise, and internal lighting. Electrical safety includes testing equipment, safety switches, outlets, and power boards. Furniture and space considerations support mobility and posture. Emergency precautions verify sprinklers, extinguishers, signage, evacuation plans, and staff training. Hazardous chemical controls, first aid supplies and locations, restroom safety and accessibility, kitchen hygiene and PPE, and outdoor grounds maintenance are included. Capture hazards with photos, create corrective actions for fall risks and other issues, and finalize with digital sign-off.
