Whether in emergencies or planned admissions, patients carry valuables and personal items with them and bring them to the hospital and they do everything they can to prevent anything from going missing. The ZippScan application enables simple and accurate documentation of valuables, creating more security for healthcare facilities and patients simultaneously.
Development with a Swiss hospital
Working with the Swiss cantonal hospital in Baden, we learned a lot about the many challenges involved in managing valuables and developed the ZippScan application.
Documentation means stress
In addition to clothing and regular luggage, patients almost always bring valuables with them and handling them safely during their procedure is crucial. For the hospital, this means stress, manual effort and chaos. Why do nursing staff enjoy ZippScan and why do patients benefit at the same time? We will provide you with all the reasons.
Upon admission, it is mandatory to document which valuables have been brought in They must be recorded in writing, which costs the nursing staff valuable time and can sometimes be inaccurate. The high manual effort is both inefficient and costly.
Many hospitals exclude liability for theft. This solution is not sufficient for patients, especially as they are sometimes defenceless against theft due to their state of health. Despite the exclusion of liability, many hospitals are therefore forced to make goodwill payments.
The most efficient way to transport and manage patient belongings is with the combination of ZippScan and ZippBag. The ZippBag was developed to safely store and transport the patient's belongings. We offer the two solutions individually or in combination.
Thanks to the ZippBag, everything is in one place. The valuables compartment guarantees that important items (cell phone, glasses, etc.) are within easy reach for patients.
The ZippScan app allows personal items to be protocalled quickly and accurately. This saves time, increases the quality of documentation, reduces theft (accusations) and frustration of the staff and patients.
Thanks to ZippScan, the ZippBag can be d located at any time. Every movement/change is documented in the app. Patients therefore receive their property back quickly and in full.
