Healthcare Storage Solutions
From patient care to cost control, strategic supply management is the key to success for healthcare facilities. By creating a well-organized storage system, hospitals can vastly improve the patient experience by reducing time spent searching for lost equipment and supplies – ultimately allowing nurses more time to spend with those who need it most. Not only that, but an effective storage setup can reduce the risk of mix-ups and infection from contaminated materials. So make sure your hospital has a top-notch storage solution in place – it’s worth every penny!
We know that managing your healthcare facility can be expensive – but don’t worry! Our storage solutions are here to help you CONTROL COSTS. What’s the secret? Streamlined inventory processes, restricted access to high-cost items, and less time spent restocking will add up fast. We’ve even seen a hospital save $40,000 by using our locking cabinets with electronic supply management system. That’s not all: A 300-bed hospital could save an estimated $1.2 million annually just by avoiding equipment loss or theft!
It doesn’t just stop there; we care about more than saving money (although that is nice). Our storage solutions also IMPROVE STAFF MORALE and reduce frustration while they devote their energy towards patient care. Preventing musculoskeletal strain from searching for lost items, storing items at point of need – it all adds up to increased job satisfaction for everyone involved!
High Density Storage
From the patient’s point of view, every inch of space that goes to storage is an inch that could have been utilized for something more beneficial. That’s why, when it comes to healthcare facilities, we need to think outside the box (or more accurately, in between the shelves) and maximize our assets with compact storage solutions. High-density mobile storage systems give you the ability to make the most out of any area by freeing up aisle space and allowing for configurable shelving, modular bins and steel pegboard – all while looking after your patients’ wellbeing.
Central Sterile Supply
Maintaining an optimum level of inventory can be difficult when you’re coordinating thousands of commonly-used supplies among many floors and wings of a healthcare facility. Let us help you with your healthcare storage needs. We simplify the process using reconfigurable, color-coded FrameWRX modular bin systems that can even be used as part of a lean management system. Similar supplies can be grouped by color and organized with different sizes of bins and dividers, and shelving can be mounted onto a high-density mobile system to increase your capacity while still creating space for employees and stocking carts.
Operating Room Storage
It is critical for surgeons and nurses to have quick access to supplies throughout procedures. Designed to improve visibility, accessibility and organization of your sterile storage right in the operating suite, 4-Post and cantilever shelving allow you to quickly identify coronary stents, dressing, catheter storage and other items. Shelves can be fitted with glass or Plexiglas doors to keep supplies dust free, and pullout racks and adjustable shelves to accommodate easy reconfiguration for changing inventory.
Pharmacy Storage
Minimize the chance for mistakes and increase the efficiency of your pharmacy with smarter healthcare storage. Standard or high density mobile storage is perfect for accommodating many sizes of bulk storage boxes, while FrameWRX modular bin shelving with colored dividers, tray style shelves, and pegs is ideal for unit dose storage and picking. Choose optional security features to ensure that controlled narcotics are protected and trackable.
Patient Room Nurse Server
Traditional sterile storage rooms can make restocking commonly-used supplies tedious and can create inventory challenges. The CoreStor Nurse Server is a unique nurse supply station that extends fully outside each patient room for easy restocking, with patented pull out shelving to provide full access to the shelves from both inside and outside the room. Patient room traffic is reduced by stocking supplies from outside the room – minimizing patient exposure and interruptions and allowing supplies to be accessed much more efficiently.
Climate Controlled Lab Storage
Lab samples, vaccines, and other medications that must be kept under specific temperature and humidity conditions require expensive climate-controlled storage space. Make the most of your climate-controlled storage by installing stainless steel shelving or cabinets on high density mobile systems that compact to increase the capacity of your cooler.
Hospital Bed Storage
Bedlift® is a cost-effective Hospital Bed Storage system designed to vertically stack hospital beds using a motorized lift, removing them from hospital corridors and saving valuable floor space. Bedlift stacks and stores hospital beds to save floor and storage space, secure and protect hospital beds, relocate beds from hospital aisles and floors to centralized storage, and reduce fire hazards in hallways.
Special Storage
Hospital Cribs are big and bulky, and take up plenty of space. Crib Lifts help double your crib storage capacity while also protecting your investment. We can also help you with storing stretchers, wheel chairs, laundry carts, mattresses, and tables
Storage of Sterile Instruments or Supplies
Fast provisioning of operating room material on demand is guaranteed because one Rotomat® storage system is located just a few steps away from the OR area. To ensure that this system would provide maximum storage volume, it was installed in a shaft having a depth of 20 ft / 6 m. Since the system has a total height of 26 ft/8 m, an enormous amount of storage capacity is available within a minimum footprint.
Storage of sterile instruments
The Hänel Rotomat® is used to store surgical instruments in sterile containers to protect them from all kinds of contamination. The retrieval of these containers takes place at the optimum ergonomic height.
Barcode-supported access control with HänelSoft®
The storage system is operated with HänelSoft® storage management software. Access control is supported through barcode scanning of employee IDs and contributes to the transparency and security of all storage transactions.
Once logged in, employees can enter the item designation using the system terminal to retrieve the article they need. The overview displayed can then be used to select the correct storage position. The sterile containers are transported to the access point quickly, and items can be retrieved for the OR without any chance of errors.
Other Rotomat® systems can be used in operation at the hospital’s central supply depot. These automated systems can be used to store various medical products and utensils needed to provide nursing care. The storage capacity can be increased considerably because movable shelf racks are no longer needed.
All of the lift systems are controlled via HänelSoft® which makes put and pick operations, as well as inventory management, much easier. The storage positions and items on inventory are identified with HänelSoft® and then displayed on the lift control terminal.
