A good example • Current Medical Compressed Gas & Rental Spend (excludes deliveries) • £89,026 • Rentals • £47,112 (52.9%) • Turnover • CD – 10.7 • Key responsibility/focus of an individual • Regular reviews/meetings between Trust & supplier • Regular Medical Gas Committee meetings – supplier attends as appropriate • Appropriate storage (main stores & wards) • Internal cylinder tracking • Gas specific porters
