GESMATIK optimizes the management of Surgical Scrubs in Hospitals
GESMATIK optimizes material management in hospitals, ensuring that healthcare personnel’s clothing, such as pyjamas and surgical clogs, is always organised and available where it is needed. Thanks to the restriction of access and the limitation of units per user, the proper use of these items is guaranteed. In this publication, we explain in detail the process to define a Dispensing and control solution for SURGICAL SCRUB SUITS: GESMATIK is a customized system that adapts to each need, proposing the best solution for the storage and distribution of each type of surgical pyjamas in any healthcare centre. The factors to consider in the design of the solution are:
1. Type of surgical surgic scrub suits:
– Full scrubs or Separate Shirt and Pants.
– Presentation of the Scrub Suits: bagged or unbagged.
– If it is bagged: dimensions of the packaging.
2. Number of sizes (XXS, XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL):-
– Different sizes of full pajamas.
– Different shirt/pant sizes.
3. Units consumed by size.
4. Available space in the hospital
5. Desired locations: changing rooms, operating rooms, etc… With this information, our GESMATIK team designs the optimal solution that allows:
– Minimizing product handling through suggestions for product hanging systems or packaging modification.
– Minimize waste.
– Housing the maximum product capacity: reducing the frequency of replenishment and saving time.
– Reduce replacement times to a minimum.
– Achieve the most efficient system for your hospital.
GESMATIK is the most widely implemented scrubsuit vending system in European hospitals, due to its reliability, large capacity and robustness.
The customised Healthcare Vending Solution 4.0 that GESMATIK will propose to the hospital, after assessing its needs, will consist of:
– One or more HELIX or KRABBIX dispensing machines that can be of different sizes and can be single, double or triple.
– A control module for each group of machines that allows the identification and access of users, by means of a numerical code or identification card.
– Software that can be accessed from any computer and does not require any type of network installation or communications in the hospital. As a result, from the implementation of GESMATIK, the hospital knows in real time the consumption by type of pyjamas and user.
– The hospital may decide to connect its supplier to the machine so that it directly receives alerts of stock-outs for product replenishment. The BENEFITS of surgical pajama dispensing machines are known and well proven by the healthcare sector:
– 30% Savings on disposable scrubsuit consumption from day one. Waste is eliminated.
– Ordered product. Avoid mixing sizes or clean and used product.
– Hygienically guarded product inside the machine.
– Time saving, the product is brought to where it is needed.
– Elimination of logistical tasks that take up healthcare personnel’s time (orders, product delivery, etc.)
