For senior management within hospitals who are under increasing pressure RFID helps you:
- Stay within tightly controlled budgets
- Minimise the need to rent medical equipment
- Provide productive wards
- Improve service to patients
- Maintain reputation and standards
A key problem area for hospitals is the lack of identification and location of key apparatus that is causing costs to rise uncontrollably. Locating resources such as ECG monitors, infusion pumps, loss of blood and other high value medical equipment can cost a hospital thousands of pounds. Staff use their time ineffectively looking for missing equipment, which forces trusts to increase levels of leasing or purchasing to replace mislaid apparatus.
The knock-on effect of this is patients can experience inadequate service in emergency situations and this has a detrimental affect on the reputation of the hospital.
Capita IT Services invites you to explore and understand how the use of RFID could meet these demands, to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
