Decontamination

ESG Service Header

Drive Medical Service operates facilities across the UK, providing bespoke, contracted and ad hoc decontamination solutions for care and nursing homes. Each service centre includes purpose built maintenance, decontamination and storage facilities, delivering the highest standards in line with industry and NHS guidance, with full traceability throughout.

Our state-of-the-art facilities include:

  • Differential clean and contaminated equipment zones and flow process to eliminate cross contamination risks.
  • Non-porous walls, ceilings and floor coverings.
  • Separate clean and contaminated sinks with elbow taps.
  • Motion-activated lighting.
  • All washing machines utilise pre-set programmes for both thermal and chemical decontamination which are calibrated annually.
  • Special vehicles for transporting clean and contaminated equipment

Our Service centre procedures are audited as part of our ISO 9001 accreditation and ensure compliance to industry standards and guidance.

All equipment is handled in accordance with health and safety protocols. Following the decontamination process all products are rigorously tested and evaluated before carefully packed and returned to the customer or into the rental stock. A decontamination certificate is provided for each product.
