Rehab hospital sees happier, less-stressed staff with Polytex Automated Workwear Management Solution.
This rehabilitation hospital in Tel Aviv, Israel, operates 12 departments with 365 beds, along with 20 clinics and institutes, and a total staff of approximately 600. Every day, the rehabilitation hospital deals with one ton of laundry, half of which is workwear. The hospital‘s in-house laundry room staff handles workwear distribution, requiring them to sort half a ton of clean garments every morning and simultaneously hand them out to waiting medical staff.
With the Polytex solution, the hospital has achieved its goal of reducing pressure on all staff members before and during each shift.
The Logistics and Procurement Manager wanted to simplify the daily process for them and ensure clean uniforms would be available on weekends and holidays. He was also concerned about the wellbeing of medical staff members, who had to arrive up to half an hour before their morning shift to get in line for clean clothing. The whole experience was time-consuming and frustrating for medical staff and stressful for laundry room workers.
The hospital needed a solution that would improve workwear convenience for its medical team and make workwear distribution less hectic for the laundry room staff.
In 2018, after seeing Polytex solutions in action at a nearby hospital, the rehabilitation hospital‘s management installed two Polytex D300 dispensing units and two return units. A third Polytex D200 Pro workwear dispensing unit was installed in 2021.
The Polytex automated workwear management solution has significantly increased convenience for medical staff and made the laundry team’s job easier, more productive and less stressful.
