Responsibilities for the hospital logistics clearly clinical functions are added, such as pharmacy and others. In other words, these clinical functions are often the responsibility of clinical professionals, such as nurses and pharmacists, who also incorporate the functions of supply chain managers.
However, these professionals do not have the training and experience to deal with numbers of logistics flow and numbers in general. There are few professionals who are clear about these numbers, they generally only speak in large quantities.
But, it is necessary to really know the numbers, have regular consultations, know the peaks in demand, relate this increase in demand to the causes and know the classification of each medicine or material, within this hospital logistics flow.
It is impossible to improve the logistics flow scheme without clarity of the entire process, with the quantities that circulate in each sector and their classification, which we call the Hospital Logistics Project.
Improving the project through frequent modifications is a normal process, handling a lot of numbers. The current trend is to outsource hospital logistics services, due to lack of knowledge of the best logistics flow project.
A Opuspac performs this activity, through its Division Opuspac Consulting, because with a good project and all the solutions it is possible to resolve the issue of hospital logistics flow with your own staff and with great savings.
