In addition to catering to the needs of
KPJ Hospitals and other healthcare
facilities, Lablink Central is also
equipped to collaborate with public and
private healthcare institutions on
research into highly infectious and
pathogenic organisms.
In 2015, Lablink recorded an 18%
increase in revenue from RM55.5 million
in 2014 to RM65.6 million as at
December 2015, mainly due to an
increase in the volume of General
laboratory, Microbiology, Molecular and
Cytopathology tests.
Going forward, Lablink will continue to
integrate all laboratories under its
managemen t and wo r k t owa r ds
ISO15189 accreditation. This will play a
vital role in gaining greater recognition
among the public, clients and other
medical laboratories. With Lablink
Central, Lablink also aims to offer
consultation services for all pathology
disciplines and to promote the medical
laboratory profession.
STERILISATION SERVICES
At KPJ, the sterilisation of surgical
instruments is undertaken by a
centralised body, the Centralised
Sterilisation Service Centre (“CSSC”) in
Rawang. The centre not only ensures a
standard level of quality from one
hospital to another within the Group,
but also creates additional operational
and cost-efficiencies in the management,
supply, collection and delivery of sterile
goods to hospitals throughout the KPJ
network.
Operations at CSSC are appropriately
documented, with processes carried out
in an efficient and consistent manner in
conformance with international quality
standards such as ISO 9001:2008, ISO
13485:2012 and ISO 17665-1:2006.
CSSC has gained prominence since the
start of its operations in 2011, with
external hospitals within the Klang
Valley beginning to appreciate the value
of its business model and engaging its
sterilisation services as it moves towards
becoming the leader in Malaysia’s
i n d e p e n d e n t s t e r i l i s a t i o n a n d
decontamination services sub-sector.
