SENIOR compliance projects manager, Sandy Sayandan, had already identified potential improvements to the endoscope decontamination unit at St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
The comprehensive scheme required new floors, walls and ceilings, lighting, interlocking doors, improved air handling and pressure differentials, changes to the water supply and drainage, new sinks and more. All this had to be achieved without affecting the operation of the department.
“To ensure that the department could continue reprocessing scopes, we needed the work to be done on weekends,” says Sandy. “We looked at how we could implement the plan with the scope of work. I chose Garth Rowbottom and SSD Limited because of Garth’s flexibility and the quality of their work. We agreed a programme of work to achieve Best Practice at the hospital.”
