DESCRIPTION

Statement of Work (SOW) Project: Urgent Replacement of Surgical Lights Location: VA New Jersey Health Care System, East Orange, NJ Delivery & Installation: ARO 60 Days

Background Four operating rooms are currently out of service due to non-operational surgical lights. These lights are critical for performing surgical procedures safely and effectively. The existing lights are very old, and the paint on the arms and mounts is cracked and flaking, creating a significant infection control risk. Infection Control has already identified this as a major issue, as the deteriorating condition of the equipment compromises patient safety and sterile environments. Because of this, surgical cases that would normally be performed in-house are being sent to Community Care, resulting in delays in treatment, increased costs, and potential negative impacts on patient outcomes. Immediate replacement of these surgical lights is essential to restore full operating room functionality and maintain compliance with infection control standards.
