We let you focus on achieving satisfactory patient out comes through the highest standards of surgical care, secure in the knowledge that vital support services are being managed efficiently and cost effectively.

Taylors have developed full draping systems, which are flexible and can be easily customised to individual theatre requirements. Not only that, we’re pleased to work with you to review your procedures and make recommendations for increasing efficiency. We have senior staff with healthcare and theatre backgrounds, so we’re quite capable of discussing specialised requirements from an informed and experienced perspective.

Taylors packed draping systems are streamlining theatre procedures around the country.

Each pack contains exactly the drapes you need for a specific operation and is packed in such a way that the drapes are available in the correct sequence or ‘recipe’ to drape the patient while minimising the risk of contaminating the drapes, patient or theatre staff. The exact contents can be adjusted to suit the requirements of individual procedures.

In some areas these packs are available pre-sterilised from our ISO-9002 certified Clean Rooms. Talk to your Taylors representative to see if this service is available in your district.

Pre-packed drapes not only minimise pre-op preparation, they permit vital monitoring of sterile supply costs.

Newly developed one-layer barrier fabrics are being incorporated into Taylors draping systems to give you the benefits of the latest lint-free theatre environment.

The latest fabrics avoid strike through, are easy to handle, help keep the patient warm and are anti-static and combustion resistant. As an added convenience instruments can be prevented from sliding off, and water-soluble tapes can be used to help secure drapes in place.

These state-of-the-art barrier fabrics are an excellent example of how we’re working closely with manufacturers and the medical professions to develop and implement new cost-effective solutions.

Our systems for collection, processing and delivery meet the highest international standards. We comply with AORN recommendations and Australian standards, and our drapes are washed using a thermal disinfection process, which adheres to these standards.

Our own quality control standards are a vital support of your own accreditation. In fact, we see it as part of our role to be involved in all infection control issues and offer improved solutions where needed.

We use top-of-the-range reusable products, which are environmentally acceptable and eliminate the necessity to incinerate or landfill infectious disposable products. We also free you from the costs of disposal.

Customised surgical procedure packs represent the latest thinking in pre-op and operating procedures. They contain everything needed for specific procedures including swabs, sutures, basins, trays, etc. So rather than opening maybe 30 different packages staff need only open one.

Surgical procedure packs not only save time-which could prove critical to the outcome of some procedures – but they also enable careful cost control of each procedure.

CPP’s are a great complement to theatre drape packs. Both packs and trays arrive ready to start operating, therefore there is no set-up time, and your clinical staff are being used in a clinical setting – not as storepersons.

Together we can provide patient care with the best and most cost-effective service possible. We can implement a reliable managed system that avoids shortages yet controls costs within your stipulated budget. A system that avoids inventory costs and related administration expenses. And one that is flexible to adapt to changing requirements. A very satisfactory outcome all around.
