• The Age Friendly Audit Tool consists of eight domains (sections). Each domain contains a number of questions, sometimes divided into sub-domains. There are several types of questions to collect data and each question provides the auditor with the opportunity to add comments. It is recommended to include as many comments as possible so as to enhance the output report. Photographs can add depth to both the data collected through the questions and the comments; it is therefore recommended that photographs are included where appropriate to strengthen the output report. Specific information will be contained where guidance is required throughout the Audit.
