Auditing

Equipment Audit Service

Healthcare Matters understand that the cost involved, both in time and money to perform an equipment audit, can be difficult to manage while maintaining your daily responsibilities. As part of our continued commitment to customer care we can offer a free, comprehensive auditing service, which we can be carried out either entirely by our highly trained auditing team, or in the company of your own staff.

With stringent infection control protocols paramount in the care home environment, our auditing service is there to help you manage and control the quality and performance of your own equipment, ensuring the optimum level of care for your residents and the best working environment for your staff.

Benefits of auditing your equipment to your organisation

Infection Control
We can identify the early signs of fluid ingress and make provisions to prevent the risk of infection before it leads to greater problems. This helps you to keep infection issues in your organisation to a minimum.

Asset Tracking and Quality Control
Regularly auditing equipment in your organisation allows you to monitor which products are in use, manage their performance and condition and ensure that all equipment is in safe working order, providing the best possible care for your patients.

Cost Effective
The benefit of recognising problems with your equipment at an early stage often means a product can be repaired economically, saving you the expensive costs of a repair or replacement further down the line.

Safe and correct use of your equipment
Assessing the way your equipment is used in terms of moving and handling, postural support and infection control, allows us to highlight training needs and issues, meaning that staff and residents get the best out of every product.

We offer the Auditing Service on the following equipment:

* Dynamic Systems
* Specialist Seating
* Static Mattresses and Overlays
* Electric profiling beds
* Hoists and Stand-aids

The Auditing Service is carried out free of charge. If you would like more information, or would like to organise an audit in your organisation please contact us by telephone.
