Solutions for Nursing Units
Reduce nurse involvement in medical supply management
Your patients time is valuable, and so is yours. Why spend it on supply chain administration?
Nursing units play a crucial role in the healthcare ecosystem, providing essential care and support to patients. However, they also face their fair share of supply chain challenges that can impact both patient care and operational efficiency. Addressing these challenges requires innovative solutions and a commitment to optimizing supply chain processes within nursing units. By doing so, we can ensure that nurses can focus more on what they do best—providing exceptional care to patients—and less on supply chain administration.
Challenge 1:
Trying to maintain optimum inventory levels in the department.
Challenge 2:
Lack of stock visibility and real-time data impedes procurement and planning.
Challenge 3:
To reduce the admin burden and improve nurse satisfaction.
Managing fast-moving medical supplies is a labor-intensive task, and it’s becoming increasingly hard for time-strapped nurses to juggle supply chain management with patient care, while also battling staff shortages. Despite all the effort involved, restocks are inefficient, leading to surpluses and stockouts.
With so many supplies’ spaces requiring inventory checks, manual counting is quick and imprecise, leading to cautious over-procurement, that bloats out the inventory. Lack of clear inventory vision inhibits decision-making and planning.
Managing medical supplies takes nurses away from patients and causes frustration. By reducing the supply chain burden on nurses, satisfaction levels raise and can even impact on retention.
