Description
This is a requirement for a 36-month maintenance contract for 3 Getinge Sterilisers Model GSS67H located within the Hospital Sterile Services Department (HSDU) at Withybush Hospital. The sterilisers are used to sterilise reusable surgical instruments and medical devices, ensuring compliance with decontamination standards and supporting the safe delivery of patient care. Ongoing maintenance is essential to guarantee equipment reliability, patient safety, and regulatory compliance. Without this contract, equipment downtime could increase, potentially delaying the availability of sterile instruments, disrupting clinical procedures, and impacting service delivery across the Health Board.
