Preventive Maintenance
WARNING:
Only facility-authorized maintenance personnel should perform
preventive maintenance on the TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist.
Preventive maintenance performed by unauthorized personnel could
result in personal injury or equipment damage.
The TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist requires an effective maintenance
program. We recommend that you perform annual preventive maintenance
(PM) and testing for Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare
Organizations (JCAHO). PM and testing not only meet JCAHO requirements
but will help to ensure a long, operative life for the TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident
Stand Assist. PM will minimize downtime due to excessive wear.
The following PM schedule guides the technician through a normal PM
procedure on the TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist. During this PM
process, check each item on the schedule, and make the necessary adjustments.
Follow the PM schedule with the corresponding PM checklist. This checklist is
designed to keep a running maintenance history and subsequent repair costs for
one TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist. However, your facility can modify
this checklist or design another to fit your needs. Keeping close records and
maintaining the TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist are two effective ways
to reduce downtime and ensure the patient remains comfortable.
