4 Procedure 1. Introduction The purpose of this appendix is to: 1.1 Provide guidance on the checking of the standardised resuscitation equipment across Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust. 1.2 Provide supportive documents to ensure the daily checking is documented and auditable. 1.3 Give guidance on what to do in the event the Medical Resus Bag has been used 2. Storage, Replenishment and Maintenance of the Medical Resus Bag 2.1 The replenishment and maintenance of the Medical Resus bags will be managed by an external company called Openhouse. If the bag is used, or if, during the daily check it is found the seal has been broken or replaced with a seal not matching the previously recorded tag number; Openhouse must be contacted who will then send an employee to check the bag and replace any missing items. 2.2 Daily Checking of the Medical Resus Bag A registered nurse or mental health practitioner is ultimately responsible for the checking and recording the daily check of the Medical Resus bag. In the event a non-registered member of staff checks the bag i.e. in a health care support worker led clinic, the accountability remains with the registered member of staff they report to The daily check of the Medical Resus Bag does not require the seal to be broken and the bag opened The daily check will consist of: The bag is sealed with a numbered tag and the tag number corresponds to the checking list i.e. the same The status indicator of the AED is a green tick via a clear window on the front of the bag The oxygen cylinder is full via a clear window on the side of the bag The daily check of the bag must be documented on the daily checklist which is in the external clear pouch of the bag. Once completed, the checklist must be kept in the external clear pouch. The checklists will be removed quarterly by Openhouse and returned to the Resuscitation Officers for audit purposes.. Electronic copies can be accessed with the electronic version of this procedure In the event the bag is located in an area where patients are not seen on a daily basis i.e. ECT suites, the bag must be checked on the days clinics are being run. This must be documented on the checklist for audit purposes. 2.3 Quarterly Checking of the Medical Resus Bag: Full Contents Check There is a picking note each for consumables and drugs that are held within the bag in the clear external pouch. These lists document the batch numbers and expiry dates of each of the items held in the bag and are for staff information only THEY DO NOT NEED TO BE CHECKED ON 4
5 A DAILY BASIS. Each quarter, Openhouse will visit each site and check and audit the contents of the bag against these lists. The reports will be sent to the Resuscitation Officers and presented at the Resuscitation Committee Openhouse hold a central record of all the contents of all the bags, including batch numbers and expiry dates. When items approach expiry, Openhouse will contact the affected sites and facilitate the replacement of these items. 3. What To Do In The Event A Problem Is Identified During A Daily Check 3.1 In the event during a daily check the seal is broken, the seal number does not match the previous documented seal number, the oxygen cylinder is not full or the AED indicator is not a green tick, the Stock Replenishment form must be completed. There is a blank Stock Replenishment form in the external clear pouch attached to each bag. Alternatively, there is an electronic editable copy of the Stock Replenishment form that can be found on the Resuscitation Services intranet pages and also with the electronic version of this procedure on the intranet. When the form has been completed, it must be sent to Openhouse via as follows: Scan the form and a copy to southernhealth@openhouseproducts.com Complete an electronic form and directly to: southernhealth@openhouseproducts.com 3.2 Any delay in completing the form and sending it to Openhouse will result in a delay in the bag being checked and replenished. 4. What To Do In The Event The Bag Has Been Used 4.1 In the event the bag has been used in any incident, the Stock Replenishment form must be completed. There is a blank Stock Replenishment form in the external clear pouch attached to each bag. Alternatively, there is an electronic editable copy of the Stock Replenishment form that can be found on the Resuscitation Services intranet pages and also with the electronic version of this procedure on the intranet. When the form has been completed, it must be sent to Openhouse via as follows: Scan the form and a copy to southernhealth@openhouseproducts.com Complete an electronic form and directly to: southernhealth@openhouseproducts.com 4.2 Any delay in completing the form and sending it to Openhouse will result in a delay in the bag being checked and replenished. 4.3 If the AED has been used, the data stored on the AED will be downloaded by the Resuscitation Officers for event review, debrief and training purposes. 5. What To Do When Openhouse Arrive On Site For Openhouse staff to be able to access all Trust sites, they must have a contact name to meet on arrival. The person who shall meet Openhouse to facilitate the checking and restocking of the bag must be a registered member of staff. This is due to the drug contents within the bag. There are no exceptions to this requirement. 5
