Diverse solutions for all eventualities

Personalised planning“To minimize the distance between patients’ beds and the utility room we decided to combine two utility rooms into one, but with two entrances. What impressed us in the planning process was not only the way MEIKO handled the sheer size of the 10 metre long room, but also how they incor-porated our own unique requirements.”Jörg Kunz | Head of Hospital Engineering | Regionale Kliniken Holding RKH GmbH | Ludwigsburg, Germany

Trying to juggle the demands of hygiene, ease-of-use, on-site conditions and costs is never easy. But MEIKO can help you fi nd an effi cient, personalised solution that reconciles all these key factors.

Focusing on patients

Through the wall “The MEIKO TopLine 30 is a great solution for situa-tions where you can’t use a central dirty utility room to dispose of contaminated material. It’s the perfect product for an isolation room with ensuite bathroom. Its narrow design means it can be fi tted in cavities in the wall.”Lesley Alway | Health Planner | Strategic Health Resources planning fi rm | Melbourne, Australia

Hygienic and patient-focused design solutions are becoming increasingly popular in the care sector, and the TopLine 30 from MEIKO is a great way of integrating this approach in your plans. This space-saving wall-mounted module discreetly integrates a cleaning and disinfection system and a WC in the ensuite bathrooms of patients’ rooms. At last you have everything you need in one place – so there is no longer any need to carry full bedpans down the corridor, with all the hygiene risks that entails. The TopLine 30 off ers the quickest and easiest means of emptying and reprocessing care utensils.

TopLine 30 – the easy-fi t construction kit

Installing the MEIKO TopLine 30 is reassuringly simple. A stainless steel frame structure containing all the necessary plumbing connections is securely anchored in the bathroom wall during construction. All that remains is to slot the bedpan washer-disinfector and WC into the frame once the room is ready to use. A simple and easy-fi t solution!

Fast and effi cient renovations

All new – just like that!“MEIKO’s concept of slotting in new machines to replace old ones off ered a rapid solution for our renovation pro-ject by massively reducing the work that had to be done on site. The seamless upstand at the back of the table top and the stainless steel rear wall create a perfectly hygienic set-up.”Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Heinz Schwirzheim | Head of Technical Services | Bundeswehrzentralkrankenhaus | Koblenz, Germany

There is plenty of modernisation work still to be done in hospitals and care homes. Many utility rooms which were built in the 1980s do not off er reliable hygiene and cannot be smoothly integrated in modern workfl ows. Most of them no longer comply with statutory requirements. It is vital to act fast to get these key facilities into shape.

Minimal disruption

The MEIKO concept of intelligent and rapid renovation brings utility rooms up to date without disrupting day-to-day opera-tions or hampering care work.We can quickly replace your old installations with modern, compact combined care units made from stainless steel which include a plumbing wall. The feed and discharge pipes are already incorporated in our systems, so there is no need for costly on-site modifi cations such as laying new pipes or re-tiling the wall behind the units.If you are only looking to replace undercounter units, then we recommend the MEIKO TopLine 40 E. This can be neatly slotted into your existing confi guration and connected up to the existing feed and discharge pipes. It’s as simple as that!

Local expertise

Hygiene across borders“We fully understand and appreciate the cultural diff er-ences relating to the disposal of patient excreta.”Markus Braun | Head of Global Sales, Cleaning and Disinfection Technology | MEIKO Maschinenbau GmbH & Co. KG | Off enburg, Germany

Globalisation has also reached the health care sector. Yet each country has its own hygiene norms and standards, and planners need to be fully familiar with the pertinent regulations and country-specific differences to ensure these are properly reflected in their plans. That’s a tough and time-consuming job. But if you work with MEIKO, then we automatically do it for you. As a globally active group of companies, we are well connected to local networks and always well informed.

Always up to date

We’re familiar with the various standards and cultural differ-ences that apply to creating an appropriately designed dirty utility room. From the spatial configuration of the units and the composi-tion of the work surfaces to accessibility requirements for cleaning and the storage of care utensils, we know exactly which country-specific regulations need to be followed to prevent hospital-acquired infections. So you can be confident that MEIKO will always come up with a clean and intelligent solution.
