11. SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
To prolong the working life of the bed and for trouble free operation it is
recommended that routine inspections should be performed by a person who is
suitably qualified and well acquainted with the design, use and care of Community
Care beds.
If inspection reveals that the safety of the bed is compromised in any way, it should
be IMMEDIATELY WITHDRAWN FROM SERVICE, tagged as such and the owner
notified, until repair or replacement has occurred.
Inspection:
A visual and functional inspection should be performed monthly and every time the
bed changes user.
• Visually inspect electrical components: can you see damage to the hand control
or power cord?
• Visually inspect mechanical components: can you see damage, chips or
deformation to the frame, bed ends, side rails or self help pole?
• Is the hand control functioning as it should?
• Are the castors, brakes and accessories functioning as they should?
1. Overall functional check that all
hand control functions are operating
the bed as expected.
2. Overall inspection for visible signs of
wear, tear or damage to the integrity
of electronics and cables.
3. Actuators and all moving
components should not make
unusual noises.
4. Side rail attachment and function
should be assessed along with the
locking integrity of castors.
5. Electrical test & tag – where
beds are in use in a commercial
environment then the testing regime
applied should align with the risk
assessment made by the owner
for safety and other compliance
requirements.
Preventative Maintenance:
NOTE: Other than general maintenance activities all other service or repair
work must be performed by qualified and trained persons or agents approved
by Aidacare.
The following preventative maintenance procedures should be carried out every
12 months or as otherwise specified:
