Every MBT preventive maintenance program starts with an equipment inventory review. MBT works with the facility to identify what equipment needs regular maintenance, what service frequency is appropriate for each category, and what documentation format the facility needs for compliance purposes.
PM programs are structured around the facility’s schedule – not MBT’s convenience. Visits are planned in advance, confirmed with the facility contact, and conducted with minimal disruption to daily operations. Documentation is delivered promptly after every visit so records are current and available when they are needed.
MBT structures PM programs for the following facility types across the Midwest:
If your facility type is not listed here, contact MBT to discuss whether a PM program is a fit for your equipment and operational needs.
Every PM program starts with a scope review. MBT will work with the facility to identify what equipment needs service, what frequency makes sense for each category, and what documentation format the facility requires. From there, a PM schedule is built that fits the facility’s operational calendar and compliance requirements.
PM visits are scheduled in advance and confirmed with the facility contact. On the day of the visit, the engineer works through the agreed scope systematically, documents findings in real time, and communicates with facility staff about anything that requires attention. After every visit, written documentation is delivered to the facility covering everything that was done.
For facilities that want to integrate additional services – electrical safety testing, calibration and verification, or repair support – into their PM program, MBT can structure a coordinated service plan that covers all of those needs under a single recurring agreement. That approach gives facilities a single point of contact for their equipment service needs and a consistent documentation trail across all service activity.
Every MBT PM program includes systematic inspection of supported equipment, functional checks, electrical safety testing where included in scope, calibration and verification where applicable, deficiency identification, and written documentation after every visit. Programs are customized around the facility’s equipment inventory and scheduling requirements – not a standard package.
PM frequency depends on the equipment type, manufacturer recommendations, facility requirements, and applicable standards. For most patient-connected equipment, annual PM is a common baseline. Some equipment categories benefit from semiannual or quarterly visits. MBT will recommend an appropriate schedule based on your specific equipment inventory during the initial scope review.
Yes. Imaging equipment PM is one of MBT’s primary capabilities. MBT’s lead engineer has 30+ years of specialized experience in radiology and diagnostic imaging equipment including CT, X-ray, fluoroscopy, C-arm, ultrasound, and related systems. Imaging equipment PM is conducted with genuine system familiarity, not a generalist checklist approach.
Yes. Every PM visit includes written documentation of what was inspected, what was found, and any recommended corrective actions. Documentation is formatted to support state surveys, accreditation reviews, and internal compliance recordkeeping, and is delivered to the facility after every visit.
Yes. Electrical safety testing can be incorporated into a PM program where applicable. Combining testing with scheduled PM visits is the most efficient way to maintain current testing records without managing it as a separate engagement.
Yes. MBT works with facilities that are establishing a formal PM program for the first time. The process starts with an equipment inventory review to identify what needs service, followed by a recommended schedule and documentation structure. This is particularly common for nursing homes, clinics, and assisted living communities that are setting up a formal biomedical service program for the first time.
Yes. MBT serves facilities throughout the Midwest including Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Contact MBT to confirm availability for your specific location.
Submit a request through the website or call (708) 406-9887 directly. Include your facility type, location, and a general description of your equipment inventory. MBT will follow up to discuss scope and what a PM program would look like for your facility.
