Healthcare and Aged Care

Healthcare Asset Management

Healthcare organisations require a considerable and wide range of assets. With sensible planning and implementation of best practices, healthcare facilities can unlock the full potential of their assets. In your industry, there is no room for error. You need to have knowledge and control of your critical assets, facilities, and medical equipment. Asset monitoring and healthcare asset tracking provides a high level of service and safety for your workers, patients, and guests.

For a number of reasons, effective management of assets is essential. First off, it makes it possible for medical institutions to reduce waste and maximise resource usage. Effective asset management and asset monitoring guarantees that equipment and machinery is ready when needed, cutting downtime, and increasing operational effectiveness.

Through the identification of equipment using RFID and/or Barcodes you can report on assets that may need repairs or replacement and eliminate wasteful purchases. Enterprise asset management systems help minimise expenses. Healthcare and aged care organisations can save a lot of money by making the most of their assets’ lifetime and utilisation.

Healthcare Asset Tracking For Check-in And Check-out Assets

Our hospital asset tracking software not only enables you to monitor the location and maintenance schedules, but also the recording of item check-outs/returns to borrowers and loans to other departments. All movements are recorded so you know exactly where the item is and where it has been. Electronic check-in/out is captured from borrowers when they receive/return the item(s) in their possession. Storing detailed information, such as return due dates and the names of people/departments who have used the equipment. Authorised medical staff can access and edit this data based on their role-specific permissions.

Hospital Asset Tracking For Maintenance, Risk And Compliance

When medical equipment is maintained and calibrated on a regular basis, proper diagnosis and treatment, patient safety and high-quality care is assured. Furthermore, asset monitoring helps to ensure worker safety and organisational integrity by helping to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements.

“Implementing Hardcat’s Stock Management module has been the driver of a substantial transformation within our department. It has significantly improved our processes which has increased productivity. We can now view an image of a part to help locate it quickly as well as set alerts so we are notified when minimum stock thresholds are breached. We now use this function to generate a weekly stock re-order report. All the governance and compliance risks that were inherent in the previous system have been mitigated and we have a highly efficient system.”

Client

Royal Melbourne Hospital (AU)

Problem Statement

RMH’s previous asset management system was unable to support increased automation of work orders for scheduled maintenance. They also wanted to eliminate paper-based systems to make the generation and management of planned preventative maintenance work orders easier while allowing for job requests to be processed quickly especially during malfunctions or incidents requiring urgent repairs. The previous system had started to create unacceptable risks for RMH in governance, regulatory compliance and cost efficiency.

“With the Hardcat system now fully up and running, the Agency now have clear visibility of all their equipment, inventory and their whereabouts.”

In addition to this, fixed readers tracked both files and employees via special RFID employee tags.”
