Our world is still being heavily impacted by COVID-19. Hospital efficiency is important. Technology has become and is an important part of healthcare in so many ways. At some point in our lives, we will all need medical treatment in some way and we rely heavily on those in healthcare to improve our health and well-being. We provide some non-medical items that help healthcare employees to work safely and efficiently in order to provide the highest level of patient care
Safety and efficiency is important to the success of patient care. Non-medical needs are vital also in healthcare. Administration is important also. From dispensing to administration, laboratory to pharmacy, when choosing effective technologies, like the Rotomat, Lean Lift, Mobile Shelving, Carts, and more act as an aid in supporting staff. Using these efficient systems helps staff have more time for the important jobs.
There is one problem that all facilities have in common – space. Space in hospitals and other healthcare facilities is limited, there’s only so far, a department can expand. The Rotomat for example, it’s proven that you could save 60%-75% in floor space. Consequently, when the space previously used becomes compacted, there’s only so far staff will need to go to search for items; this decreases the time spent looking for items and in turn increases productivity.
We know that it is not just about the size of the space, but also the type. You may need to store a variety of drugs and specimens; These items may need to be stored in a controlled environment and that’s why we offer cold storage technology so staff can store temperature sensitive items correctly and with ease.
We know that one of the key requirements for healthcare clients is traceability. Within a dispensing environment handling large quantities of pharmaceuticals, all different in size and weight, can present challenges. We offer options that allow you to quickly track who accessed what and when. All your staff need to do is store or retrieve the items, and the system can do the rest.
For those with higher security requirements, this can be achieved by storing each item behind locked doors, and because traceability is vital, all retrievals are logged after each use. Within medical environments, drugs can be assigned to specific members of staff, and access will not be granted to those without authorization.
When considering the benefits of increased traceability and security it has to be noted that the number of lost and misplaced items may decrease, and this is due to an increase in personal accountability. Costs are reduced due to less mistakes or theft, and this in turn supports financial growth.
Whatever your storage requirement, our storage systems will not just help with limited space in your healthcare location, it’ll enhance working processes and the overall productivity of your staff.
