Connecting nursing homes, physical therapy clinics, and healthcare facilities in Texas with qualified local biomedical technicians for patient scale calibration, PCREE testing, and compliance documentation.
Texas has the second-largest skilled nursing facility population in the country, and HHSC surveys regularly cite equipment maintenance deficiencies. Our biomedical technicians serve Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Fort Worth, El Paso, Arlington, and communities statewide. Patient scale calibration, PCREE testing, patient lift inspection, therapy equipment calibration, and vital monitor service are available with complete documentation for HHSC and CMS compliance.
Our biomedical technicians in Texas calibrate all types of patient scales used in healthcare facilities:
All calibration is performed using NIST-traceable reference weights. A calibration certificate is issued for each scale, showing the serial number, date calibrated, test results, and next due date.
Our technicians in Texas are experienced with all major patient scale manufacturers including Detecto, Seca, Scale-Tronix (Welch Allyn/Hill-Rom), Health O Meter Professional, Cardinal Health, Tanita, and SR Instruments. We carry calibrated reference weights that span the full capacity range of each scale type, ensuring accurate multi-point calibration.
In addition to scale calibration, our network provides comprehensive biomedical equipment services to Texas healthcare facilities:

Annual calibration is the standard for most healthcare facilities in Texas. CMS Conditions of Participation require facilities to follow manufacturer recommendations, and NIST-traceable annual calibration meets this requirement. High-use scales and any scale that has been moved, dropped, or repaired should be recalibrated immediately regardless of the annual schedule.
Texas nursing homes should maintain a calibration certificate for each patient scale showing the device make, model, and serial number; the date calibrated; the technician's name and credentials; the calibration results; and the next due date. These certificates should be kept on file and available for CMS surveyors. Medical Equipment Repair Network technicians provide this documentation after every calibration visit.
Yes. Most state physical therapy licensing boards, including Texas's, require that electrotherapeutic devices and ultrasound therapy units be calibrated annually. Calibration records should be maintained and available for state PT board inspection. Our biomedical technicians provide e-stim and ultrasound calibration with proper documentation for PT licensing compliance.
PCREE (Patient Care Related Electrical Equipment) testing is an electrical safety inspection required by CMS for all Medicare- and Medicaid-certified facilities. It covers leakage current, ground resistance, and physical integrity for all patient care electrical equipment. As a CMS-certified state, Texas nursing homes must comply. PCREE testing is performed annually by a qualified biomedical technician per NFPA 99 standards. For SNF-specific PCREE services, visit PCREEtest.com.
