AXREM Decontamination & Equipment Cleaning Guidance

11 May 2021

AXREM members engineers and maintenance professionals work in hospitals and healthcare premises to ensure vital medical equipment is repaired, serviced, and maintained to the highest standards.

To ensure timely service delivery and provide a safe work environment requires equipment and facilities that have been appropriately cleaned and decontaminated. There have been instances where engineers have arrived on site and the equipment presented has visible blood on it, which is clearly unacceptable.

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic there has been an increased focus on decontamination and general cleaning practices, following the manufacturers procedures provided in the product instructions for use (IFU) documentation.

We hope the documentation and the AXREM Declaration of Decontamination Status Form is helpful, please download clicking the link at the top of the page.
