Elkerliek Hospital: Improving patient safety with RmoniWeb

Efficiency Through Digitization

Going digital has dramatically improved efficiency at Elkerliek. Previously, staff recorded temperatures by hand on paper logs hanging on each fridge, a process that was time-consuming and prone to human error. Critical storage like medication refrigerators must stay within a strict safe range at all times; if a temperature rises above a set norm, the medications’ reliability and potency are at risk, potentially rendering them unusable. Now that all temperature data is logged automatically, the team has real-time insight and control over conditions. Manual checks and paperwork are a thing of the past, which saves valuable time and reduces the chance of missing a deviation.

Rapid Response to Alarms

With RmoniWeb in place, Elkerliek can respond to issues before they become problems. The system sends instant alerts to staff via SMS or voice calls whenever a temperature deviation occurs. In critical departments such as the Pharmacy and the General Clinical Laboratory (AKL), these alerts are also accompanied by on-site visual and audible alarms. Because these areas are always staffed, an alarm draws immediate attention. This means if a fridge malfunctions or a door is left open, employees can react at once, before temperatures reach unsafe levels.

Always in Control RmoniWeb

What truly sets RmoniWeb apart for Elkerliek is the ease and accessibility of the platform. With the RmoniWeb app, hospital staff have real-time access to every sensor and storage unit directly from their smartphone, whether they are on-site or at home. This constant connectivity gives staff confidence and control. “The app is incredibly easy to use,” says Dave van Seggelen, Technical Engineer at Elkerliek Hospital “I can instantly see if a fridge door is open, no matter where I am. During inspections, I can show that the data is being logged correctly. Everything is clear at a glance.”
