Package Tracking Software Beats Flu SeasonCold and flu season is here and it’s very likely that your hospital or clinic has already been inundated with patients. People getting their flu shots, patients already coming down with colds, those being treated for more serious sicknesses; the busiest time of year for the health care industry is here. But sometimes it’s tough to remember that it’s not just busy with patient care, your mailroom staff is extremely busy too. With so many patients coming in, more and more packages are being delivered. If your mailroom staff is still using a paper package logging system, your patients’ care could be at risk. Below we explore the ways in which package tracking software helps you improve patient care during this hectic period.

  • Speed: When you have patients waiting for their flu shots, you can’t afford to slow down the process by hand logging packages. Our web-based package logging system allows you to log packages 4-10 times faster than by hand, meaning that those shipments of flu vaccine will be ready for your team to administer to patients sooner than ever before!
  • Accuracy: Hand logs can get smudged, damaged, or worse – lost! Staff members can unintentionally miss-write the package number or type, causing it to end up in the wrong department entirely. With our cloud package tracking software, your staff can simply scan the packages in and type any additional information in the fields required. This greatly reduces the number of errors that occur in the mailroom.
  • Effective Records: Accuracy in logging packages lead to accurate, effective records. What’s more, your records will be fully digital with our package tracking software, allowing you to access them from any device and quickly search for the information you need. Being able to track down those shipments of gloves or antibiotics immediately means being able to provide top quality patient care and cutting the labor cost associated with looking for lost packages.
