Professional Audit Service
Working with you
As a market leading provider of Pressure Area Care products, Invacare has been providing the public and private healthcare sectors with professional audit services for over 10 years.
Current legislation
All healthcare providers must comply with the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) and the Care Quality Commission (Registration) Regulations 2009. Regular equipment audits are vital in order to meet these regulations, resulting in improved cleanliness, safeguarding of patients from pressure ulcers and reducing hospital acquired infections.
A fully tailored audit service
We
understand the time and resource required to carry out an equipment
audit therefore our specialist service is tailored to alleviate
these pressures. Our team work closely with you to ensure all your
Pressure Area Care equipment is inspected to a high standard with
minimal disruption to your patients and
residents.
Professional training and guidance 
We also offer professional guidance to staff members on the correct inspection, cleaning, decontamination and disposal procedures for your equipment in accordance with the Medical and Healthcare Regulatory Agency (MHRA) directive.
Placement at time of audit
In addition, there is an optional placement service available in which our team can audit and replace damaged equipment at the same time, saving you time and administration as well as staffing costs.
Detailed audit reporting
After every audit, a comprehensive report is provided, detailing equipment failures and identifying actions that can be implemented to reduce future equipment failure rates.
