Scrub and Linen Management
Upgrade the Lifecycle Management of Scrubs and Linen
Surgical scrubs and linen are worn, cleaned, and then returned for further use in healthcare. Even though the costs of these items aren’t normally considered when looking for better management, the administrative time and effort required to manage the items is costly. Radio-Frequency Identification tags can be attached to scrubs and line to improve item management and traceability.
How it works
TAG ATTACHMENT
Scrubs and linens have Radio-Frequency Identification tags that can endure laundry (several wash cycle ratings are available depending on the version). Heat sealing, stitching, or embedding the tag are all common options. Serialisation is achievable from a traceability aspect due to the Radio-Frequency Identification tag's extra duty as a distinctive identifier for the product.
ESTABLISH READ POINTS
Radio-Frequency Identification handhelds and read points can record the movement or transfer of items as they leave and enter a facility. Storage rooms can be used for inventory procedures to ensure that no errors occur.
AGGREGATED DATA
As data is compiled, analyse reports on delayed or missing goods. Follow the history of each scrub or piece of linen to learn more. Utilise cutting-edge analytics to comprehend usage and ensure consistency across all products.
Valuable Workflows
CHECK-IN / CHECKOUT
Capture the items quickly and precisely with RFID as they are checked out for cleaning and sterilisation. Unlike barcodes, there is no need for a line of sight, and multiple things can be tallied at the same time. This makes it simple to track inventory movement. Check that no items are missing right away when items are checked back in.
INVENTORY COUNTS
Even when business processes are optimised, it is critical to always double-check. RFID inventory counts make it simple to count merchandise in a stock room or on the back of a truck. Variances such as matching, missing, misplaced, or excess objects can be seen in real time.
