Written by Estates Manager

The purpose of this policy is to outline the systems and processes to be used within the Trust to ensure that medical equipment used within the Trust can be used safely. Equipment used within Imaging, Pathology and Pharmacy Departments may have their own service arrangements and operational policies as these are specialist units.
The MHRA Bulletin “Managing Medical Devices - Guidance for Healthcare and Social Services Organisations (DB2006 (05)) November 2006 makes recommendations about the need for effective medical equipment management systems to be implemented in all healthcare premises. The Trust accepts the recommendations contained within the bulletin.
