Care Equipment Repairs & Fault Finding
Professional Care Equipment Repairs and Fault Finding
Aire provides professional care equipment repairs and fault finding for care homes, nursing homes, hospitals and healthcare facilities across Somerset and the South West.
When essential care equipment develops a fault, getting it diagnosed and repaired quickly can help minimise disruption to staff and residents.
Our experienced engineers can diagnose faults, identify defective components and provide appropriate repairs for a range of care and patient-handling equipment.
Care Equipment Fault Finding
Our engineers can investigate mechanical, electrical and operational faults affecting care equipment.
We use a systematic approach to identify the cause of a fault rather than simply replacing components unnecessarily.
Fault finding can include checking:
-
Electrical systems and connections
-
Batteries and charging systems
-
Motors and actuators
-
Handsets and control systems
-
Emergency lowering systems
-
Lifting mechanisms
-
Brakes and castors
-
Mechanical components
-
Safety features
-
General equipment operation
Once the fault has been identified, we can explain the issue and advise on the most appropriate repair.
Hoist Repairs
Aire provides repairs and fault finding for patient lifting equipment, including mobile patient hoists and ceiling track hoists.
Common faults can include:
-
Hoist not raising or lowering
-
Battery or charging problems
-
Faulty handsets
-
Actuator faults
-
Emergency lowering faults
-
Electrical problems
-
Castor and brake issues
-
Lifting mechanism problems
-
Unusual noises or movement
-
Other mechanical or electrical faults
Our engineers will assess the equipment and identify the likely cause of the problem before recommending the appropriate action.
Repairs for Patient Lifting Equipment
Patient lifting equipment plays an important role in the day-to-day operation of many care environments.
A faulty hoist or other lifting device can cause disruption to staff and residents and may need to be removed from service until the issue has been assessed.
Aire provides professional fault finding and repair services to help care providers identify problems and determine the appropriate course of action.
Profiling Bed Repairs
Aire also provides fault finding and repairs for electric profiling beds used within care environments.
We can investigate problems such as:
-
Bed not raising or lowering
-
Faulty actuators
-
Handset problems
-
Backrest or leg-rest faults
-
Electrical faults
-
Height adjustment problems
-
Castor or brake issues
-
Other mechanical or electrical faults
Where appropriate, our engineers can carry out repairs to help return equipment to reliable working condition.
Repair or Replace?
Not every fault requires replacement of the complete piece of equipment.
Our engineers can assess the condition of the equipment and explain whether a repair is appropriate or whether replacement may be a more practical option.
We aim to provide clear, straightforward advice so that care providers can make informed decisions about their equipment.
