7-Factor Audit lets you know how your loved-one is doing

The 7-Factor Audit Sets the Industry Standard

Penrose Senior Care Auditors® created the senior care audit service – and set the Senior Care 7-Factor Audit™ standard.

When a PenroseCertified® senior care auditor visits your senior and conducts the 7-Factor Audit, they are helping to ensure the health, safety, and well-being of your loved-one. The 7-Factor Audit™ is conducted while the auditor is on-site visiting your senior. They login to a proprietary Senior Care Audit Center. Once completed, your senior care audit report is automatically emailed to you.

Senior care audits assess living conditions through the lens of health and safety. For senior care auditors, clutter means potential slips or falls. A low-level of supplies could signal poor nutrition. Or, a strong urinary odor may be a sign of unsanitary conditions or a need for a medical check-up. There are no medical or financial audit items.

Penrose Senior Care Auditors’® 7-Factor Audit™ contains 150 items

1. Cleanliness and Clutter – by facility/home and senior area/room
2. Odor and Temperature - by facility/home and senior area/room
3. Caregivers and Support – performance, friendliness, and accessibility
4. Operations and Maintenance – working order of appliances, HVAC, and technology as well as maintenance of facility/home
5. Pantry and Supplies – food, toiletries, etc.
6. Senior Observations – observations of mood, temperature, hygiene, signs of abuse
7. Other - items such as pet care
