Am I misreading this or have they got a total of 223 pumps and they test 2459 pumps per year. That is an average of 11 tests per pump per year. i.e. roughly monthly testing of pumps.

Overkill is an understatement!!!
Given the length of time testing and retesting each pump, do any ever get used on a patient?

I also notice there is not really any standardisation.

Far too much time on their hands.

... one to clean the debris out from the castors. think

Just as it should be. smile

Meanwhile, I hope I'm not the only one who has worked in a hospital* that didn't yet have any patients (in it). Perfect!

* During commissioning, in case anyone is wondering.


If you don't inspect ... don't expect.
