Self Contained Room Handover Checklist

Use this handover checklist to assess the condition of a self contained room before move in or after move out. Capture details such as unit and room number, resident present, and whether the room is being vacated or occupied. Inspect fire doors, carpets and vinyl, furniture including chest of drawers, wardrobe, bed, mattress and bedside cabinet, lighting and heaters, walls and ceilings, smoke detectors, windows, and blinds or curtains. Check bathroom door, sink, toilet, shower enclosure and mirror cabinet, and kitchen fixtures including cooker, worktop and sink. Note cleaning required, issues to rectify, and whether management has been informed. Record PAT testing needs and collect staff, maintenance, and resident signatures.
