Ashcom Technologies and MaintiMizer™ Help Hospitals Meet Joint Commission Accreditation Requirements
Ann Arbor, Michigan (November 15, 2010) – Meeting Joint Commission accreditation requirements is less time-consuming and more cost-effective for hospitals and health care organizations that use MaintiMizer™ as their computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
Timothy Good, president of Ashcom Technologies, Inc., explains how his company’s CMMS makes achieving and maintaining accreditation easier: “The Joint Commission standard on equipment maintenance seems straightforward: organizations are required to follow manufacturers’ recommendations for preventive maintenance. But when you consider the number of pieces of equipment a hospital has in its inventory, you see just how challenging it can be to establish and maintain a thorough preventive maintenance program. Our health care customers across the country—including the Mayo Clinic, Emerson Hospital, and the Mercy Hospitals—tell us that using MaintiMizer™’s inventory and preventive maintenance modules is key to their ability to cost-effectively manage these tasks and create the accurate documentation needed to meet Joint Commission standards.”
MaintiMizer™’s preventive maintenance module is designed to meet the same goal as the Joint Commission standards: making sure that equipment works properly when it is needed through regular maintenance in accordance with manufacturer/industry standards. Regular preventive maintenance extends equipment life by reducing machinery stress and wear, saving the facility time and money and—most importantly—saving the lives of patients.
