EBME

With large volumes of biomedical devices in use throughout hospitals, the management and maintenance of EBME portfolios is a complex and time-intensive process.

EBME equipment management must satisfy exacting patient safety requirements, comply with Care Quality Commission (CQC) standards and offer optimum levels of availability and productivity to support the hospital in enhancing patient throughput and revenues.

However with only limited budgets and resources available, this can be a major challenge.

A structured partnership

Working in partnership with our customers, we can provide the resources and experience to enhance EBME facilities. We achieve this with a three-part methodology that includes a comprehensive assessment of existing equipment; the development of a structured maintenance plan; and the implementation of a proven equipment management strategy.

Our dedicated teams work in association with senior management and existing engineers, either across a whole hospital or within specific departments, to ensure that equipment is safe, operational and available when required.

Our simple and proven philosophy is that by striving to make your EBME facility a Centre of Excellence, significant direct and indirect benefits will accrue, including cost savings, productivity improvements, reduced waiting lists and lower staff turnover.

The Asteral difference

By applying established asset management models and working in partnership with management, clinical and technical teams, we will define and deliver a tailored solution that is designed around the needs of your facility.

We do not manufacturer medical equipment or consumables, and have no commercial tie-in with manufacturers and we vigorously exercise our independence on your behalf. This enables us to work in true strategic partnership with our clients to deliver a safe, efficient and productive EBME portfolio.
