DHL IS BRINGING REAL CHANGE TO NHS SUPPLY CHAINS
Many of the patient safety initiatives being implemented across the NHS are dependent on a resilient supply chain. You are the expert on your hospital; what you, your teams and your patients need. Over the last 20 years, our certified supply chain specialists have experienced industries such as aviation and retail as their supply chains matured and become more resilient.

Maturing a hospital’s supply chain may not seem like the obvious solution to enable clinical oversight and improve patient safety. However, the Scan4Safety trusts have proven exactly that. By implementing and deploying GS1 identifiers and an innovative IT solution, they are now able to effectively manage and track inventory within the supply chain, to automate the inventory management process, and scan at the point of care. This has delivered significant patient safety benefits such as never event prevention and product recall.

If you are looking to the future and how you will track product to patient and develop a resilient supply chain, then our team of supply chain specialists can hold a collaboration event with you to start the journey – and most importantly develop a supply chain strategy that will identify, and deliver the actions to achieve it.
