[Histonet] RE: Water baths

[Rathborne, Toni]

In the All Common checklist, COM.30750, a Phase II, addresses this and it is a requirement.

"Temperatures are checked and recorded each day of use for all temperature-dependent equipment and environments using a calibrated thermometer."

We still do, due to the fact that it is on our general "temperature" chart that is used in the department.

It is no longer a CAP requirement to do this, so we haven't for many years.

Does anyone take daily temperature checks of their water bath (used for cutting only) for CAP?
