Asset tracking

Automatically tracking the location of medical assets with an RFiD Discovery solution is proven to increase utilisation and therefore reduce capital expenditure. It reduces the time to locate devices so nurses can spend more time on patient care.

Sterile services tracking

RFID tracking can improve the visibility of the locations of surgical equipment to improve utilisation levels and drive down capital costs. At the same time it ensures there are always enough instruments available to cope with demand.

GS1 compliant asset label on medical device

GS1 labelling

RFiD Discovery's GS1 compliant asset labelling solutions help hospitals improve efficiency and quality of care. In the UK, it supports the NHS Scan4Safety initiative by making it easy to record which medical equipment has been used on which patients.

Smart Cabinets

Smart cabinets automatically record when items are removed or returned for more efficient management of supplies. Ideal for the storage of implants and other high value assets, they provide a high degree of security and enhanced accountability as access to supplies can be controlled and recorded.

Inventory management

Inventory management solutions help hospitals improve efficiency, optimise stock holding, minimise waste and free up time for clinical staff. Tracking consumables helps ensure reliable replenishment of required inventory and prevents waste.

Wayfinding

Partnering with wayfinding experts BuzzStreets, RFiD Discovery provides an app-based navigation solution assisting both patients and staff in finding their way around a hospital. This helps reduce late patient arrivals and time spent by staff directing patients, while also assisting new employees and locums.

Temperature monitoring

Automatic temperature monitoring solutions from RFiD Discovery help healthcare providers to improve regulatory compliance, patient safety and operational efficiency. Removing the need for manual checks they help save time, reduce cost and eliminate errors.

Staff Safety Systems

A staff safety emergency call system helps to safeguard medical staff working in hospitals, care homes and other healthcare environments in the event of personal attacks.

Baby Tagging

RFiD Discovery's baby tagging solution uses active RFID technology to prevent the unauthorised removal of infants from maternity, neonatal and paediatric wards. Providing 24/7 security and peace of mind.
