Walkways and Accessibility Inspection Checklist
This checklist helps facility teams in inpatient and clinical settings assess the safety and accessibility of internal walkways, corridors, stairwells, and disabled ramps. Verify floors are clean and free of slip and trip hazards, wet floor signage is in place, and carpets or hard surfaces are in good condition. Confirm stair nosings, railings, and lighting are adequate, and automatic doors function correctly. Ensure ramps and entryways remain unobstructed, level, and free of surface water to support safe access and egress.

Building Health and Safety Audit Checklist
This Building Health and Safety Audit helps evaluate accessibility and life safety across a facility. Review parking and drop off points, level access, permanent and temporary ramps, lifts, and doorways. Inspect internal stairs for lighting, condition, landings, nosings, and handrails. Verify alarms, accessible ground floor exits, refuges or evacuation chairs on upper floors, staff training, and personal emergency evacuation plans. Built around UK guidance including Building Regulations Part M and the Equality Act, it supports safer, compliant premises.
