HOSPITAL What is a hospital?

It is a place where sick and injured get treatment and got cured.

What is hospital Building ? It is a commercial building which provide a comfort of residential building and have all the amenities/services of an industrial building

FUNCTIONS OF ENGINEERING SERVICES IN HOSPITALS

To provide safe & hazard free environment.

Ensuring that the facilities / services under their scope are in

compliance with the relevant legal provisions and are in order.

Ensuring optimum operational efficiency of engineering system.

Preventive maintenance to avoid breakdown.

Preparedness for breakdown to reduce down time.


FUNCTIONS OF ENGINEERING SERVICES IN HOSPITALS

Therefore Engineering Services are perhaps the most vital of the utility services in the hospital. The efficiency of entire patient care delivery system of the hospital depends on their efficiency. Even the slightest breakdown of power supply system, information system, communication system or not working of vital equipment can have catastrophic effects

BIO-MEDICAL ENGINEERING Purchase of equipment’s (which includes inviting quotations/tenders for

purchasing new equipment’s/machines & preparing comparison chart for the same).

Maintaining the equipment to the best of its performance by organizing a planned maintenance program for all equipment’s and attending to emergency breakdowns and repairs.

Maintaining records; for e.g. equipment history. Monitoring contract services viz. A.M.C. and C.M.C. Keeping record of the Spares/consumable items. Involvement in the activities of the hospital’s safety committee & checking

safety hazards.

QUALITY ASSURANCE Engineering Services is one single department on

which depends the efficiency of each and every department and hospital staff.

Even though it is a department that generally does not come in the lime light for any credits, in view of its crucial role it would be more appropriate to call it Enabling Service


QUALITY OUTCOME Expectation of the patient There is a regular and uninterrupted power / water supply,

the communication system and a comfortable environment(lighting, ventilation, humidity, noise/ odour level)

Failure of these services is not the cause of any untoward effect, on their treatment / chances of recovery.

The services should be able to provide to them an atmosphere like their home atmosphere


QUALITY OUTCOME Expectation of the Clinical Team The service optimize the comfort level of the patients That the services are adequate enough to support the timely

performance of the diagnostic / therapeutic procedures The communication system is efficient and fully reliable The service do not, in any way, adversely affect the treatment

of their patients


QUALITY OUTCOME Expectation of the Management No complaints from the patients, staff or the regulatory

authorities Safety of patients, public and staff from all possible hazards

related to the facility management. Minimum possible cost of maintaining / operating the

facilities / Equipment under the charge of the department


QUALITY OUTCOME Expectation of the Regulatory Authorities Absolute compliance of all legal provisions and no incidence

of violations of the laws Complete safety of the patients, relatives, public and the staff. No complaints from the public about environmental

nuisance.


LOCATION OF ENGINEERING SERVICES It should be located at the ground floor in non prime area

from which all the area of the hospital are easily approachable.

It should be away from patient care area and do not hinder the operation of clinical area.

It can be easy accessible from the outside as well as inside the hospital.

It is located in such a way that it is approachable with heavy vehicles.


CONCLUSION Hospital Engineering Services is backbone of

hospital. Hospital cure’s the mankind. But It is the

engineering services which cure’s Hospital and keep it fit to serve the mankind.
