LINAK optimises the use of hospital resources by producing the new features “Clean Me” and “Check Me”

LINAK launched two new features for the OPENBUS™ system. The boxes help to upgrade the hygiene level. They also help to control and keep the care and cleaning intervals. All issues resulting in a more effective use of resources, thereby lowering the hospital costs.

Clean Me In the medical area, cleanliness is very important. A hospital is not a place for bacteria and that is why the hygiene level needs to be very high. Although this effort is expensive and time-consuming, it is indeed necessary. In order to help optimise the cleaning process of beds at hospitals in a hygiene effective and economic way, the Danish company LINAK has invented the extension-box “Clean Me”. To the patient the “Clean Me” function means reduced risk of infections, which in the end leads to shorter hospitalisation. To the hospital porter and the nurse these functions mean release of time for other purposes in a busy working day. The “Clean Me“ system sends a signal, if the bed or any medical equipment needs to be cleaned. The cleaning intervals can be set individually. The “Clean Me“ system supports the systematic accuracy in cleaning the beds and it warrants a high standard of hygiene.

Clean Me

Check Me Beds have to be inspected continuously so that all functions and safety installations work perfectly. The “Check Me” function makes it possible to conduct maintenance on beds on a regular basis instead of waiting for breakdowns, which are expensive and inconvenient for both patients and hospital staff as it prevents an effective and optimised patient flow. The “Check Me“ system sends a signal as soon as an inspection falls due. The inspecting intervals can also be set individually – there is the possibility to set a time interval or after a certain number of cleanings. With the new LINAK system hospitals can keep their bed in good condition and organise the service in a more efficient and economic way.

Check Me

OPENBUS™ accessories

The box is available in three types: “Clean Me“, “Check Me“ and “combined Clean Me & Check Me“.

The new features are compatible with all LINAK OPENBUS control boxes. To withstand also very intensive cleanings they are made water resistant (category IP X6).
