Hospital supply chains are dealing with superbug issues by stocking up on supplies to fight potential outbreaks, according to an article on the Healthcare Finance News website.
Supply chain and materials management executives are adding to their institutions' superbug supplies, particularly when it comes to infection prevention and detection.
Those supplies include ultraviolet light robots or machines that aerosolize different liquids that then dry on the surfaces and kill bacteria. They represent a significant capital investment, so hospitals must first decide how such devices will be incorporated into hospital processes.
Supply chain transactions may also incorporate orders for medical devices that should be less susceptible to harboring bacteria.
