As an early adopter of the Air Liquide Healthcare TGS (total gas services), Austin Health has enjoyed considerable benefits over more than 10 years:

Convenience. Air Liquide Healthcare handle the supply and delivery right to the ward location and they check stock levels and tweak delivery amounts to handle fluctuations in use.  An optimised delivery schedule has been established to suit Austin Health’s needs. In a dynamic health environment, Air Liquide Healthcare delivery staff can also be contacted by phone in emergencies when special deliveries may be required. Shortages have been virtually non-existent.

Expertise & Safety. Using the experienced Air Liquide Healthcare staff instead of Hospital staff to deliver and store gas stocks within the Hospital helps maintain highest standards. Main gas storage areas  and areas within wards and departments are optimally stocked and organised to maintain safety levels  and efficient supply. In addition, with the ALH staff interacting with Austin staff, information and advice can be passed on in a timely manner.

Value for Money. In Austin Health’s case and when considering the overall scope of the service, Air Liquide Healthcare can provide the TGS to a higher standard and lower cost the Austin Health would be able to do on its own. Austin Health is delighted with our association with Air Liquide Healthcare and the adoption of TGS model of service delivery.
