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.
