The Necessity for Healthcare Workplace Innovations

Last month, world healthcare organization, Providence, put out a list of the top 10 Healthcare Trends to watch in 2023.?The #1 trend they listed reads as follows:

Workplace innovations that ease workloads and reduce burnout among employees and help them connect with patients in a deeper way will play a key role in addressing today's healthcare workforce shortages.

These “workplace innovations” have their work cut out for them!?Demand is high for qualified, healthcare staff just as burnout, turnover and rising labor costs are diminishing the availability of qualified staff.?Consequently, staffing shortages have driven an increase in wages, forcing hospitals to invest significant resources to recruit and retain staff. Hospital budgets are also being challenged as current inflation and supply chain issues drive the price of the patient supplies through the roof.?Wasting of already purchased supplies because of possible contamination needs to be considered.

Due to all these challenges, there is a marked need for a time-saving, money-saving, decontamination system that disinfects a broad range of shared handheld electronics, devices and non-critical patient tools. A decontamination system that can also be used to achieve cost containment strategies by disinfecting unused, unopened patient supplies quickly and effectively is very beneficial.

The return of unused medical supplies to inventory generates double-digit savings and reduces the environmental burden of disposal.?This further helps alleviate supply-chain issues.

RDS-32a BENEFITS AS A DISINFECTION INNOVATION:

• A reduction in disinfection time means more time on patient care and less labor time on cleaning.?Nurse staff is responsible for disinfecting shared devices and non-critical tools between patients.
• The RDS provides a safer work environment by lessening the chemical footprint
• The combination of hand-hygiene and a simplified disinfection protocol for electronics, devices and supplies results in greater compliance?

To attract healthcare workers that want to work at your facility, they need to know your offer a safe environment and the time for them to provide better patient care. The RDS can assist with both of those points by reducing disinfection times so healthcare workers can spend more time on their work loads and connecting with patients.
