Eastwood Park
Eastwood Park Training manages the IHEEM AE(D) competency framework, to provide a formal route for individuals wishing to register as Authorising Engineers in the field of Decontamination. All AE(D)s wishing to register with IHEEM are assessed under a competency framework developed and agreed with IHEEM, and managed by Graham Stanton, Chair of the AE(D) Registration Board. He said: “I would like to say that over the years we have developed a very comprehensive education framework in conjunction with Eastwood Park, which runs the scheme on our behalf. It is a partnership; we have developed extensive topics for the framework which will take a candidate around two years to submit and complete. The framework covers many topics, such as management skills, guidance and standards, steam systems, sterilisation methods, endoscope decontamination, water as used in the processes, report writing, and auditing, plus many more technical subjects required for an AE(D) to understand. This framework evolved from the
original ACIST course set up in the mid- 1990s by David Hurrell. As a Board, we are constantly reviewing the subject content, and how it is being delivered for candidates. This review is undertaken using feedback, and via auditing of the candidate’s work with the assessor at EWP. We are very keen that the candidates who pass through this scheme receive a very broad but comprehensive knowledge base.”
