Ice Machines

[Jennifer Breen]

Good Afternoon, Seeking opinions on ice machines across a large public health service.
Do you use them, what alternatives do you have for patient drinks etc or for other uses .
Also, what testing schedules do you have for legionella?
Many thanks

Good morning Jenny,
In NSW we can use them but here in the Tweed we have made the decision not to due to poor compliance with cleaning and testing.
I have seen some horrific sights when they were serviced.
We have gone back to old fashion ice trays to ensure integrity.
Kind regards
Kristin
