EPC/RFID: An effective method for realtime asset management
East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust (EKHUFT) had thousands of assets and medical devices to manage across the trust’s three acute sites.
But with no digital or automated solution in place, efficiently tracking its extensive asset inventory of 1,470 beds and 37,000 medical devices became a near impossible task.
Given the benefits of RFID (radio frequency identification) in retail to provide accurate stock visibility, the trust opted to introduce passive UHF EPC/RFID tagging as a means to track and trace the high-value equipment in the trust’s medical equipment library.
