01 / The challenge

Keeping track across a healthcare system.

For Amy Vandervort at NCH, keeping an inventory current goes hand in hand with knowing that assets have been inspected. When she began using HeadCount, the facilities team had already used it for a year. Many locations still needed asset tags.

I learned the system quickly with the help of Head Count staff and the many tutorials available and have everything set in the system now.

02 / The solution

One inventory project. 36 locations.

A recent assignment called for an inventory of hospital-grade power strips across 36 locations. Amy and the HeadCount team created an inventory type called “Hospital Grade Powerstrips,” then tagged the assets so they could track them.

They were very accommodating on building this for our 36 locations.

03 / The result

An inventory, staff education, and passed inspections.

The team built the inventory and used the process to educate staff. Amy connects that work directly to their inspection result:

We built our inventory and along the way, we educated staff on the importance of using Hospital Grade power strips and we passed our Fire Dept inspections because of this.

04 / Ongoing support

Support for the needs of a hospital group.

The power strip project sits alongside Amy’s everyday priorities: accurate asset inventories and confirmation that technicians have visited and inspected assets through the app. She also values tutorial videos that make HeadCount easy to learn and teach.

That ongoing help matters as her department’s needs change. Asked whether she would recommend HeadCount to another facility manager, Amy answers: “I would say absolutely.”

Honestly, Chris and the team help me every week with our ever-changing needs so it is hard to pinpoint just one.
