LINQ ASSET TRACKING

Save Valuable Time and Reduce Costs using RTLS Asset Tracking

From infusion pumps to wheelchairs, tracking the location of hospital assets is straightforward with Linq Location Tracking. Linq collects data from Internet of Things (IoT) sensors to identify every tagged piece of hospital equipment and reports its location to a central dashboard. Operational teams can use this data to determine optimal asset utilisation and design processes that facilitate smoother day-to-day hospital operations. With improved inventory management processes, clinicians now spend less time searching for essential equipment. They can trust that the equipment they need is sterile and in the right location, ensuring efficient usage. Linq helps reduce overspending on unnecessary equipment and safeguards existing resources.

Readily Available Equipment in Critical Moments

Design a system that ensures your team can rely on equipment availability when they need it most. Give nurses 60 mins back per shift spent looking for equipment.1 Designate areas like ‘contaminated rooms’ and ‘sterile rooms’ for asset management to ensure clinicians can access the hospital equipment they need while reducing waste and time inefficiency

Reduce Hospital Asset Loss and Misuse

Tag and track hospital equipment to reduce the likelihood of misplacement, hoarding, or lost inventory. Small medical equipment like handheld pulse oximeters is often accidentally wrapped in bedding during routine room cleaning and discarded down the dirty linen chute. However, each lost piece of equipment leads to a loss of thousands, if not tens of thousands of dollars of the hospital’s budget. Research shows that 10% to 20% of a hospital’s mobile assets are lost or stolen during their useful life.2 Using RTLS, it is easier to quickly located items and reduce costly replacements.

Keep Equipment Where it Belongs

Set up geo-zones to keep equipment in its designated area. When medical equipment moves outside its assigned zone, automated alerts go to the central dashboard. This design can support the reduction of hoarding by encouraging accountability through the Hawthorne effect, a theory that people change or improve their behaviour simply because of awareness that their behaviour is observed, like placing equipment in the right places. 3

Get More Value out of Expensive Equipment

Collect, record, and track moving assets in real time. Understand which hospital equipment is used most frequently, where in the hospital and which isn’t, enabling smarter decisions about inventory and usage. Support data-driven procurement decisions on which new equipment to buy and which existing equipment to replace. Identify where surplus of inventory could be reduced, reallocated or disposed of to ensure that all equipment is fit for purpose. Create the right type and mix of equipment to best support clinical practice and better procurement processes for financial savings.
