Sheltered Housing and Community Alarm Audit 2024
by Jordan Wheeler, from the Community
This audit checklist supports adult services and sheltered housing teams to verify compliance across key safety areas. Assess asbestos management, electrical installation condition reporting, emergency lighting logs, and portable appliance testing. Review fire safety practices including weekly tests, evacuation planning, door integrity, and extinguisher training. Confirm gas certification, detector testing, and awareness of leak procedures. Track legionella controls such as flushing, temperature checks, and showerhead descaling. Record LOLER inspections for lifts and hoists, manage scooter storage hazards, and ensure communal areas remain clear. Maintain evidence, raise remedials, and protect residents, staff, and contractors.
