Does your asset management method integrate compliance?
In hospitals or other healthcare facilities, operational teams look after the well-being of the facility itself and manage overseeing the upkeep of assets and operations…but with hiring challenges, including lack of available talent or already stretched budgets for more employees, these teams are often understaffed.
With too much to do and not enough people to accomplish it all, what does that mean for compliance?
For maintenance and operational (M&O) professionals, ensuring a secure and healthy environment ranks right up there with keeping facilities compliant, but without the proper tools to facilitate organization, streamline operations and communication, and optimize resource utilization, your operational team might feel as though they require a medical degree of their own, just to manage the workload.
Luckily, an asset management solution with compliance capabilities can consolidate critical maintenance, asset, and rounding data alongside comprehensive systems to make keeping your healthcare facilities open and running easier.
Why you should inject compliance-readiness into your asset management
Compliance-readiness is vital for healthcare facilities managers due to strict regulations, patient safety concerns, and data security needs—which is why you need compliance integrated with asset management, not in two separate systems. Having them in one means that work order and asset management are aligned with compliance codes.
Consider failing an inspection; patients and caregivers might be inclined to avoid a healthcare organization with failed accreditation. Compliance-readiness enhances patient care, minimizes risks, and builds trust among patients, caregivers, and the connected community.
In short, it’s healthy for your organization.
How to optimize your operational workflow, including compliance
When your M&O teams can work efficiently, your hospital or healthcare facility can treat more patients and provide better care. The right asset management tool, with built-in compliance capabilities, can help your operational department do its part so doctors and physicians can do theirs.
Implementing an asset management solution that integrates compliance can help teams:
- Complete risk assessments and preventive maintenance workflows
- Optimize operations, identify challenges early, and know what to prioritize
- Effectively manage assets, compliance tasks, inventory, preventive maintenance, security rounds, and work orders
