Most JCM Seating Solutions Ltd. products are
individually assessed for a client prior to issue.
They are handed over in a controlled way to
ensure optimum fit and specification, checks are
completed and any additional individual verbal
instructions given. We therefore recommend the
following points are adhered to prior to any re-
issue of equipment:
•
Cleaning
Follow a rigorous process of cleaning in order
to decontaminate the product and eliminate the
chance of cross infection.
•
Assessment of Fabrics / Foams
Carefully assess the condition of fabrics and
foams in the seating product, and have these
replaced partially or even completely if need
be. In severe cases if the chassis is worn
and the seating in poor condition it may be
necessary to have the product re-furbished by
the manufacturer. In very severe cases if the
chassis is badly worn and the seating in very
poor condition then the product should be
decommissioned and disposed of.
•
Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Decomissioning
If your product is set up with an electrical
function you should always contact JCM
or your authorised representative for de-
comissioning information.
•
Appropriateness of Equipment
Check that the equipment supplied is
appropriate for the needs of the user taking
age, weight, ability, diagnosis, and any other
important factors into account. For instance,
JCM Seating Solutions Ltd. products may not
be suitable for persons with severe challenging
patterns of behaviour. Also ensure safe
specified limits for use are not exceeded by the
new user. Your sales representative can advise
on the suitability of the equipment.
•
Manuals and Records
Ensure this instruction manual and any
additional manuals for the seating unit
are handed over to the new user with the
equipment and ensure the servicing log history
is up to date. Records on the new user must be
updated to maintain traceability.
•
Inspection
The equipment should have a rigorous
inspection prior to the reissue, to include
the points covered in the six monthly routine
check, regardless of if the checks were recently
completed. The equipment should be free of
excessive wear or distortion in any aspect of its
main construction or accessories.
•
Condition
Wheels, tyres and brakes must be in good
working condition, properly adjusted and
inflated as appropriate.
•
Accessories
Check all accessories carefully for damage and
potential shortcomings which may pose a risk
to the user.
•
Function
Ensure that all the functions of the chair are
working correctly e.g. tilt in space, height
adjustment, back recline, folding etc.
•
Fixings
Check that any knobs, hand wheels, nuts,
bolts, levers and fixings are in good condition
and fitted in place securely.
•
Modifications
Any special modifications, adaptations,
alterations or other such procedures including
added accessories may require review. If they
are found inappropriate, remedial action (if
considered safe and practical) should be taken
to reverse them if possible.
•
Labelling
Any labelling specific to the previous user
should be removed and replaced with labelling
specific to the new user.
•
Adjustment
Adjustment of the equipment to the new user
must be carried out by suitably qualified and
experienced professionals. These adjustments
along with the other appropriate checks and
tests should be completed with the owners
knowledge and agreement.
•
Hand Over
Competent handing over of the equipment to
the new user or attendant must include proper
training and advice in safe use, particularly
regarding transportation issues.
•
Packaging
Always ensure that the chair is packaged
correctly before delivery.
•
Handle Fitting
Please note that the handle fitted is dependent
on the size of the chair. You therefore need to
ensure the size label on the handle matches
the size of the chair being used.
