As the healthcare industry continues to evolve, so do the challenges that come with it. One of the biggest challenges faced by healthcare facilities is the proper management and storage of medical supplies, equipment, and records. Fortunately, healthcare storage solutions can simplify materials management, improve patient care, and control costs.
McMurray Stern is a full-service storage solutions provider that simplifies materials management. Their healthcare storage solutions offer unmatched flexibility and configurability to meet the unique storage needs of each facility. This blog will discuss how proper healthcare storage can improve patient care, control costs, and save space.
Improving Healthcare Performance & Patient Care During High-Volume Times
Working with large volumes of patients requires accuracy, efficiency, and accessibility. McMurray Stern helps healthcare organizations improve performance during peak times. Getting organized helps centralize patient data for easy retrieval while streamlining workflow and accuracy of information to serve your patients better.
Improving Healthcare Patient Care
Proper healthcare storage directly impacts the patient experience. Well-organized storage areas promote better patient care by allowing staff to spend more time with their patients. When staff members don’t have to waste time searching for supplies or equipment, they can devote more attention to patient care. Additionally, well-organized storage areas reduce the risk of mix-ups and infections, which can severely affect patient health.
Controlling Costs
Control costs by promoting streamlined inventory processes. When inventory is easily accessible, staff can quickly see what supplies and equipment are available and what needs to be ordered. This reduces the risk of over-ordering or under-ordering supplies, which can be costly. In addition, restricted access to expensive assets, such as high-value equipment or medications, reduces the risk of theft or misuse. Finally, well-organized storage areas require less staff time spent restocking and looking for supplies, which can save money on labor costs.
Saving Space at Your Healthcare Organization
Every square foot of a healthcare facility used for storage is a square foot that can’t be used for patient care. But because proper storage is vital to optimizing assets and promoting patient health, maximizing space with compact storage makes sense. McMurray Stern’s healthcare solutions offer a range of compact storage options, including high-density mobile shelving, vertical lift modules, and Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS). These options can increase storage capacity by up to 50% while providing easy access to supplies and equipment.
