Audit Coordinator

Hello,
I found this site then a few months later, it was gone, and so HAPPY it's back now!!
Anyway, I am fairly new to quality (4 years) and am the audit coordinator for my company. I was certified as Lead QMS AS9100 auditor a year ago but it focused on clause auditing and not process auditing. So I am in the process of converting all of our audits for ISO 14001, AS9100, OHSAS 18001, and ISO 9001 from clause to process audits. Our quality manager and I have identified our processes, one of which is Preventative Action/Risk Assessment.
Knowing that more emphasis is placed on risk assessment in the newly released ISO 9001, I am wondering, first, if we should create an audit just for Preventive/Risk Assessment as a stand alone process audit or incorporate these elements into every other process audit.
If you think it should be audited as a stand alone audit, does anyone have an example of a preventative/risk assessment "checklist"? Personally, I'd rather incorporate it into all the other process audits as that would be a simpler audit to conduct; just asking each process owner how they plan on mitigating risk and documentation thereof.
Any advice or help is appreciated!
