Hi Chris,
For future reference can I suggest you keep Paragon Care Details on
hand, this Company is fast becoming the Market Leader
for Hospital Beds service and support in Australia.

Hi All,
I was just after some advice on electrical patient beds. Here at
Royal Darwin we have several Howard Wright M6 & M7 type beds. Mid
last year it was decided our Biomedical Department were best suited
to manage the maintenance of these assets. Currently the corrective
and preventative maintenance services on patient beds and lifters
are outsourced but I wanted to know what other hospitals are doing
and if any are in similar situations.
Do any other Biomedical Departments manage patient beds and lifters
themselves and is the maintenance performed on site or in a workshop?
Are other hospitals electrical safety testing these beds and lifters
to AS/NZS 3551:2012 or AS/NZS 3760:2010?
