What biomedical equipment services does Occupational Mobile Diagnostics provide?

We provide preventive maintenance, corrective repair, calibration, electrical safety inspection, and isolated power system (IPS) testing for hospitals, surgery centers, and clinics.

Are your biomedical technicians certified?

Yes. Our BMETs are certified and our work follows Joint Commission, CMS, and NFPA 99 standards so your facility stays survey-ready.

How fast can you respond to an equipment failure?

We offer scheduled preventive maintenance plus priority on-call service to minimize downtime on critical medical equipment.

Do you help with regulatory compliance and documentation?

We do. Every service includes the documentation you need for Joint Commission, CMS, and NFPA 99 surveys.

How do I request service or a quote?

Call (424) 204-2382 or email info@occupationalmobilediagnostics.com and our team will schedule an assessment.

What employer medical-surveillance exams do you provide on-site?

Spirometry, audiometry, respirator medical evaluation and fit testing, and the B-reader chest X-ray required under OSHA's silica standards — all performed by qualified staff at your worksite.

How are ototoxicants changing hearing conservation in 2026?

Roughly 22 million workers have been exposed to ototoxic chemicals that can damage hearing and compound noise. Where solvents and noise share a workspace, the annual audiogram is best read as part of a combined-exposure picture.

Is there a regulatory change to hearing-loss testing underway?

Yes. In June 2026 the Department of Labor opened a comment period on how occupational hearing loss is tested, weighing the pure-tone audiogram against objective methods, with comments due October 22, 2026.

OSHA's 2026 Focus on Engineered-Stone Silica Raises the Surveillance Bar

OSHA's 2026 enforcement emphasis under the crystalline-silica standards (1910.1053 and 1926.1153) centers on high-exposure trigger tasks, with particular attention to engineered stone containing more than 0.1% crystalline silica. Fabrication and finishing of those materials produce some of the highest airborne concentrations in the workplace, and the agency has made clear it is watching them.

For employers, the compliance backbone is medical surveillance: an exam offered at no cost, at a reasonable time and place, to every worker required to wear a respirator for 30 or more days a year, performed by a PLHCP and including spirometry and a B-reader chest X-ray. The baseline is due within 30 days of assignment unless a qualifying exam was done in the prior three years.

Meeting that duty across a distributed or shift-based workforce is where mobile screening earns its keep — the exam comes to the worksite, and the records come back audit-ready.

Ototoxicants and Noise: Hearing Conservation as a Combined Exposure

Hearing conservation has traditionally been framed as a noise problem, but 2026 surveillance keeps widening the frame. Roughly 13% of workers — about 22 million people — have been exposed to ototoxic chemicals such as certain solvents and metals that can damage hearing on their own and amplify the effect of noise when the two occur together.

That has practical consequences for a surveillance program. Where solvents and noise share a workspace, an annual audiogram is better read as one signal in a combined-exposure picture, and the Department of Labor's mid-2026 request for input on hearing-loss testing methods suggests the measurement question is itself under active review. The steady state remains ANSI S3.6-calibrated audiometry and a baseline-plus-annual cadence once exposures reach 85 dBA.

Field Notes

Field Notes: Keeping Spirometry Honest in a Mobile Unit

Spirometry is unusually sensitive to its surroundings. Because it measures the volume and flow of exhaled air, temperature, barometric pressure, and humidity all move the readings — which is why standardized protocols call for BTPS correction and routine verification against a known-volume syringe.

Those corrections stop being theoretical the moment the unit is working out of a hot trailer at altitude. The field rule is simple and non-negotiable: re-verify instruments in the environment where testing actually happens, log the conditions, and repeat the check whenever they change materially. Run several sites at once and the same procedure applies to every unit, so results stay comparable and auditable.
