Auxo Medical is a leading provider of biomedical equipment repair services for healthcare providers across the United States. Since 1998, we have been a trusted partner for healthcare facilities in need of equipment maintenance and repair services. If you need a piece of medical equipment serviced, repaired, or replaced, our expert technicians are up to the task.

Here are the different types of repair services offered by Auxo Medical:

Preventive Maintenance

Preventive maintenance is the key to keeping biomedical equipment functioning at its best. We perform regular preventive maintenance on equipment so that healthcare facilities can avoid dealing with costly breakdowns. Preventative maintenance is also an effective way to keep all fundamental equipment operating within manufacturer specifications.

Auxo Medical offers a wide range of maintenance services, including equipment cleaning, calibration, and testing. Our team of highly trained technicians can perform these services on a variety of equipment. From anesthesia machines to patient monitors, we can help keep your equipment in top condition.

On-site Repair

When equipment breaks down, it can be disruptive to patient care and costly to the facility. Broken equipment can be especially problematic at emergency facilities or locations with a high patient volume. To deliver each patient the care that they need and deserve, you need your equipment to work reliably.

We understand the importance of timely solutions to unexpected breakdowns. That is why Auxo Medical offers on-site biomedical equipment repair services. Our goal is to minimize downtime and get your equipment back up and running quickly. Our technicians are equipped with the tools and expertise to diagnose and repair equipment directly within your facility, minimizing the need for costly equipment replacements.

Depot Repair

In some cases, it may be more cost-effective to send equipment off-site for repair. This is especially true for complicated equipment or machines that require specific parts. Broken specialty components sometimes need to be ordered and shipped from manufacturers, which can take time. Off-site repair may also be necessary so technicians can have any specialty tools and supplies they may need for a full repair service.

Auxo Medical’s depot repair services allow healthcare facilities to send equipment to our state-of-the-art repair facility for diagnosis and repair. We offer a quick turnaround time for depot repairs, making sure that you get your equipment back as soon as possible.

Parts and Accessories

Along with our professional repair services, Auxo Medical also offers a wide selection of parts and accessories for biomedical equipment. Our inventory includes parts for patient monitors, infusion pumps, ventilators, and more. We also offer accessories such as cables, leads, and probes to help keep each machine functioning at its best.

Parts and accessories can be useful when you would like to upgrade rather than replace a piece of equipment. Hiring a professional to come and add the desired components to the machine may save you time and money in the long run.

Equipment Sales and Rentals

For small facilities or low-priority tasks, it can be more cost-effective to rent or purchase refurbished equipment. Our refurbishing facilities accept old equipment from companies that are expanding or upgrading. This equipment is often in good condition, and our refurbishing specialists work to bring each piece up to industry standard. The goal is to offer providers a more affordable alternative to brand-new equipment.

Auxo Medical has a variety of sales and rental options to meet the needs of healthcare facilities. Our inventory includes a wide range of equipment, from infusion pumps to surgical lights. We also offer flexible rental options to accommodate facilities’ changing needs.

Safety Testing and Inspections

The safety of patients and staff is a top priority for healthcare facilities. Auxo Medical offers safety testing and inspections to help your company comply with local regulations and industry requirements. This is a proactive way to help avoid future risks and potential costs associated with malfunctioning machinery.

Our technicians can regularly service your equipment to verify that it is functioning safely and properly. They are trained to perform safety testing and inspections on a variety of equipment, including electrical safety testing, gas leak testing, and performance testing.

Biomedical Consulting

Beyond regular repair and maintenance services, Auxo Medical offers biomedical consulting services. In the ever-evolving world of medical technology, we’re here to keep you up to date on your best options.

We work hard to help facilities make informed decisions about their medical equipment needs. Our team of experts can provide guidance on equipment purchases, equipment maintenance, and equipment retirement to help facilities make the most of their investments.

Why is preventative maintenance important for your medical equipment?

Preventive maintenance is an important part of keeping your medical equipment in top condition. It is a regularly scheduled service visit by a qualified technician to clean, out-of-range test, and inspect your medical equipment for any potential issues. Through regular preventative maintenance by an Auxo Medical professional, issues with your medical equipment can often be detected before it breaks down, thus avoiding the cost of repairs and the inevitable downtime it would cause. The technician will be able to identify any potential factors that could lead to a breakdown, such as worn or defective parts or improper usage. Maintenance helps ensure that medical equipment is properly functioning, which is key for providing accurate, efficient care.

Regulatory and medical design standards must be met, and maintenance helps ensure that all safety requirements are abided by. Finally, preventive maintenance provides a unique opportunity for staff training and demonstration of proper use, as the technician can provide guidance and answer any questions.

 

How often should you perform preventative maintenance on your medical equipment?

The frequency of preventive maintenance depends on a few factors, including the type of medical equipment, whether it’s used for patient diagnostics, or general use. The manufacturer’s recommendations should be followed for the particular medical equipment, as this will ensure optimal performance and accuracy. Additionally, if any changes are made to the equipment, the frequency of maintenance may need to be adjusted accordingly. Keeping in contact with your Auxo Medical team regarding maintenance and repair will ensure uptime and accuracy of your equipment.
