EBME Forums Forums Management Lost and Found Reuniting the lost

Hi,
have a Graseby 500 infusion pump here - no specfic owner markings but its marked G3 Cardiac Ward then the number 13517, labeling says that it was worked on by SAC 17/7/08 due July 2010.

If any of this rings a bell send me an email giving the pumps serial number and you can have your property back.

If we don't here anything in a month i.e. by 10th of June will assume no one wants it back and bin it.

... or, better yet, donate it to those who would be glad of it!

Meanwhile (and yet again) the need for a universal asset numbering system across the NHS is being illustrated.

I'm surprised to hear you suggesting such national beaurocracy, Geoff! Wouldn't it be easier to keep the local system, but add a label for hospital name and phone number?

But surely that in itself would constitute a (workable) system of sorts?

Let's go for it! Whatever works.

Moira, as I have said before 'use the postcode'

But (as I have said before) that's far too simple (and cheap) an option!

If Newton had been sitting under a plum tree, would we still have gravity today ?

Hospital Name & Phone number?, why not the post code, very easy to find especially if you use google maps.

One label. hospital name, bar-code, asset number and the post code. very simple.
