Service supplier celebrates 15 years with health board
At the University Hospital of Wales nuclear medicine department is Ashby’s Phil Facey and superintendent radiographer Chris O’Callaghan.
Ashby Gorman Baker (AGB) is this year celebrating 15 years association with one of its customers, Cardiff and Vale University Health Board (CVUHB).
CVUHB has five gamma camera systems within the trust, which are all maintained and serviced by AGB, and has the largest nuclear medicine department in Wales situated at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff. The trust has patient referrals from all over the principality and border counties and scans up to 8,000 patients per year.
University Hospital of Wales superintendent radiographer Chris O’Callaghan commented: “Like many departments in the UK our gamma camera systems are older than we would like, and it is essential that they are well maintained and serviced to ensure we can cope with our workload. If there is a problem Ashby always ensures that it is dealt with quickly and efficiently for minimum downtime and as little disruption to our workload as possible.”
