Care Home Audit Software FAQs
What is care home auditing software?
Care home auditing software replaces paper audit forms with digital checklists completed on a phone or tablet. Each audit produces a scored report and logs any actions needed. Results build into a dated record you can show the CQC or another regulator. Most tools also schedule recurring audits and show results across homes. GoAudits includes 40+ care home audits aligned with the CQC framework, and the app works offline.
How does care home compliance software help with CQC inspections?
It gives you a dated record of every audit, finding and fix, ready to show the inspector. Each audit generates a report the moment it’s submitted. Reports, photos, signatures and closed actions are stored by home and date. That replaces the paper CQC evidence folder. To rehearse the visit itself, run mock CQC inspections with the same audits.
What should the best CQC compliance software for care homes include?
Look for five things: mobile audits that work offline, ready-made CQC self-assessments, actions tracked to closed, instant reports, and one view across all your homes. An audit management system for care homes should also schedule recurring audits and send reminders. Above all, staff must find it easy enough to use every day. Trial it with your own audits before you buy. GoAudits covers all of these, with a 14-day free trial.
Does GoAudits work for CIW, the Care Inspectorate and RQIA?
Yes. Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW), the Care Inspectorate in Scotland and RQIA in Northern Ireland each inspect against their own framework. You can edit any GoAudits audit, or build your own, to match it. Reports, actions and evidence then work the same way they do for CQC.
Do we need separate audit software if our care management system already has audits?
Not always. If your current audit module does the job, keep it. Providers add a dedicated audit tool when the built-in one falls short: forms are tick-boxes with no scoring, actions live in a spreadsheet, or changing a question needs the vendor. A dedicated audit app runs alongside your care planning and eMAR systems. Our guide to choosing software for CQC audits lists what to check in a demo.
How much does CQC audit software cost?
It depends on the pricing model. CQC audit software is priced per user, per location, per bed or per registered service. Compare the total for everyone who will use it, including staff who only complete actions. With GoAudits, people who only complete assigned actions don’t need a paid licence, and you can try it free for 14 days. See what CQC audit software costs for the main price drivers.
Can staff use the care home audit app on their own phones, without Wi-Fi?
Yes. The app runs on iOS and Android phones and tablets, including staff’s own devices. It works offline, so audits carry on in rooms with thick walls or weak Wi-Fi. Results sync once a connection returns. The screens are simple enough for care staff who have never used an audit app.
Is it suitable for a single care home as well as a group?
Yes. A single home gets ready-made audits, instant reports and reminders without building anything. A group runs the same audits in every home, with one dashboard showing completion and scores for each. Head office sees which homes are behind without waiting for monthly reports.
How hard is it to move care home audits off paper?
Not hard. Send us your existing checklists and our team sets them up for free, so you can start auditing the next day. Or start straight away with 40+ ready-made audits aligned with the CQC framework. The care home audit app runs on iOS and Android, including staff’s own phones. It works offline in rooms with thick walls or weak Wi-Fi, and care staff pick it up with little training.
