Why healthcare and aged care need a different approach.
Healthcare facilities and aged care environments carry some of the most frequent retest cycles under AS/NZS 3760:2022 — intervals are set by equipment type and operating environment, creating heavier administrative load than most sectors. Clinics, medical centres and residential aged care facilities all share the same challenge: testing needs to happen around consultations, clinical hours and residents’ daily routines, not the other way around. PlanetSafe plans testing to minimise disruption where practical, with credential checks matched to site requirements including WWCC and police checks where required, and per-item records grouped by facility and area. Retest dates are tracked in every report, because in a frequent-testing environment, “we’ll get to it” is how compliance lapses.
Service scope: PlanetSafe’s test-and-tag service covers general workplace electrical equipment within the agreed AS/NZS 3760 service scope. Biomedical servicing, calibration and patient-connected device testing under AS/NZS 3551 are separate specialist disciplines — we scope every facility clearly so you know what is and isn’t covered.
Retest dates tracked in every report — the cycle stays on schedule.
