Identify and pursue ways to enhance system performance and discuss these ideas with the Director of Facilities for future consideration. Investigate any delays in the shipment of ordered stock without awaiting direction from the Facilities office. Also, investigate alternative sources of supply should expected delays to be too long.
Respond promptly to all complaints related to comfort system performance to ensure that, whenever possible, patient and staff comfort is adequate, with the highest priority to those calls dealing with patient comfort and safety. Results are to be reviewed by the Facilities office every month.
Maintain a complete and accurate daily trouble call log with an emphasis on the nature of the trouble and the associated repairs/adjustments made.

Results of the log are reviewed daily by the Assistant Director of Facilities and should indicate no more than 3 call-backs required per month.
