The Challenge

Electrical safety is critical in healthcare. Hospitals and clinics rely on uninterrupted power and safe electrical systems for patient care and smooth operations.

The NHS required a trusted partner to deliver regular testing, compliance assurance and remedial works across complex facilities. Any electrical failure could result in equipment downtime, power outages or safety risks with severe consequences for staff and patients.

 

The Solution

ETM supports the NHS through a comprehensive programme of electrical safety services tailored to the demands of healthcare environments:

  • Rigorous compliance testing – fixed wire, PAT and emergency lighting inspections carried out to the latest standards
  • Early hazard detection – using thermal imaging to identify risks before they escalate into faults or failures
  • Single point of contact – bundling services to simplify management, reduce disruption and create cost savings
  • Specialist expertise – engineers qualified to City and Guilds 2391 standard and NIC accredited, ensuring all reports are traceable and legally recognised

 

Why ETM Was Chosen

  • Depth of expertise – proven experience with national organisations and high-stakes environments
  • Efficient delivery – testing engineers trained to minimise disruption during inspections
  • Trusted accreditation – NIC certification providing clients with complete assurance of compliance
  • Commitment to healthcare needs – recognising that hospitals require discretion, professionalism and strict adherence to safety

 

The Results

  • Maintained compliance across multiple NHS facilities
  • Reduced risk of power outages and electrical faults affecting patient care
  • Delivered efficiency gains through bundled services and coordinated testing programmes
  • Strengthened the NHS’s ability to provide safe, uninterrupted healthcare services
