Collaboration is key.”Ĭheckit’s engineering team acted “without hesitation’ in providing UKAS calibrated sensors at short notice. In this extraordinary period, we must all stand together. “Digital tools are proving to be an invaluable resource in enabling the courageous and dedicated NHS workforce to rapidly meet the unprecedented demands being placed upon them. “We didn’t think twice about offering our unconditional support to the field hospitals being established in record time to help the country cope with the scale of the Covid-19 crisis.
Keith Daley, executive chairman of Checkit, said: “We have a long-standing relationship with the NHS, having installed technology at over 185 hospitals in the UK. The company is also offering to donate its advanced monitoring technology to further Nightingale hospitals planned for Harrogate Convention Centre and the University of West England, in Bristol. This will ensure critical medicines, reagents and samples are protected from potentially damaging temperature variations. The project was completed quickly and will provide vital reassurance as we manage the healthcare demands of the coming weeks and months.”Ĭheckit is discussing similar deployments with Nightingale Hospital North West, which is under development at the Manchester Central conference centre, and the Midlands Nightingale being set up at Birmingham NEC. He said: “I thank the team for their incredible contribution in extremely difficult circumstances.
John Pitcher, chair of the Association of Anatomical Pathology Technology, who has been coordinating storage facilities at the London site, paid tribute to Checkit’s accelerated support. The system will help protect critical assets from temperature variations, reduce the manual burden on staff and maintain the highest storage standards in accordance with CQC and HTA requirements.Ī team of Checkit engineers was mobilised in a matter of hours to design and install the system. It installed its Tutela medical monitoring system at the first Nightingale hospital, which opened last week at ExCeL London, directly contributing to the provision of urgent care to Covid-19 patients. Temperature monitoring technology from Cambridge UK business Checkit has been donated to support the rapid set-up and safe operation of NHS Nightingale hospitals across the UK.
