Synbiotix & Living Map Address Operational Challenges and Financial Burdens caused by misplaced Hospital Equipment

Each year, hospitals lose approximately 13.5 million working hours due to misplaced equipment, significantly reducing the time staff can devote to patients, and impacting the overall quality of care. However, it's not only the patients that are affected by this, staff and facilities are also impacted. The permanent loss of critical equipment results in significant financial strain, as hospitals are forced to replace essential and often, expensive assets.

Synbiotix, the only fully integrated healthcare facilities management software, is designed to streamline operations and enhance efficiency across healthcare environments. Their solution empowers healthcare providers to optimise services, ensuring smoother day-to-day operations.

Similarly, Living Map, a leader in digital wayfinding and asset visualisation and tracking is committed to enhancing operational efficiency within healthcare. Living Map’s latest asset visualisation technology allows facilities to track, locate and visualise their valuable equipment and staff on a digital map platform. 

With Synbiotix's facility management software and Living Map’s asset visualisation technology, the partnership offers a powerful digital solution that enables hospitals to efficiently locate and assign vital assets in real-time such as equipment, wheelchairs or stretchers. The solution streamlines healthcare operations, enhances response times in patient care, and ensures critical assets are always directed to where they’re needed most based on their proximity. Ultimately, reducing stress levels for both staff and patients, leading to improved overall satisfaction and an uninterrupted healthcare experience.

"We look forward to collaborating with Synbiotix to enhance operational efficiency in healthcare. Together bwe can ensure that vital resources are always available when needed, improving care for patients and supporting staff in their efforts." - Peter Asman, Chief Revenue Officer at Living Map.

"We're thrilled to partner with Living Map to bring advanced asset-tracking capabilities to hospitals. Together, we're combining our strengths to improve visibility of critical resources - in real time. This collaboration represents a significant step forward in optimising hospital operations and enhancing the quality of care for patients." - Mark Edell, Managing Director at Synbiotix
