You can expect our team to:

Minimise downtime and maximise clinical time

Healthcare workers operate your medical equipment typically under challenging environmental conditions.

Heavy usage, repeated cleaning and always on equipment can lead to requests for repair.

Our fast-acting helpdesk and engineers prevent downtime and quickly get equipment back in good working order.

Ensure high levels of cleanliness

Have peace of mind that our specialist medical equipment engineers know how to access clinical environments and will maintain hospital hygiene standards while keeping your assets in optimum condition.

Increase performance and uptime of equipment

We deliver planned preventative maintenance prescribed by you in clinical settings.

Ensure availability and readiness of equipment

When corrective maintenance is required, know that Veritek will organise alternative exchange units per your replacement plans.

Enhance customers' experience

You can expect Veritek’s field engineers to uphold your brand values and work hard to position themselves as an extension of your team.
