Why choose MEMO Clinical Engineering? 

Why is it important to test and calibrate equipment?

• As per nGMS contract, management point 7 3 Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) points can be claimed by having a medical equipment/devices tested and calibrated.
• For devices where readings are used for diagnosis and recording, it is paramount that these readings lie within the parameters set by manufacturers.
• A structured annual planned maintenance service for testing and calibrating helps reduce unexpected corrective maintenance costs, reducing valuable downtime and inconvenience.
• Medical drugs and vaccines require medical refrigerators with prescribed ambient temperatures that in reality do waiver. This can affect medicines inside and could be detrimental for patients and an unnecessary expense to your practice. 

We will issue you with an easy access summary certificate as evidence that performance/functionality tests have been carried out for your QOF audit and also identify and report any unlocated devices from established inventory.
