Microbiological testing
Working with the necessary laboratory, our facilities management engineers are trained to carry out microbiological testing
Some microorganisms can cause severe illness or contaminate sterile environments. Because of this, microbiological testing is an essential stage in proving that an operating theatre has reached the required standards for use as it ensures the microbiological threshold has been achieved.
“Thank you for the work completed this weekend replacing our canopy panels; it has improved the appearance of the theatre greatly as well as supporting our infection prevention measures.”
