Can all your Mobile Management Systems be installed on one handheld
PDA?
Answer:
Yes. Our systems were developed in such a way that they not only are
able to run on one hardware unit, but their combined value is
actually greater. Using multiple applications reduces the learning
curve and leads to even quicker qualitative and quantitative
benefits.

What is the difference between the
Walsh Waste Auditor
and the
Walsh Waste Tracker
Program?
Answer:
The
Walsh Waste Auditor
allows a consultant to perform a detailed waste audit quickly and
safely, providing a snapshot of the hospital’s waste management
situation at that point in time.
The
Walsh Waste Tracker Program
is a turnkey package of technology and services that allow the
hospital to reduce costs and improve safety and regulatory
compliance on a day-to-day basis. The Waste Auditor
is the ideal entry step to the long-term solution provided by Walsh
Waste Tracker.

How does
the
Walsh Waste Tracker Program reduce hospital spending?
Answer: Cost Reduction is based upon three
principles:
1.
A significant proportion of biomedical waste is actually regular
garbage.
2.
Eliminating the regular garbage from the biomedical waste stream
will reduce costs, labor, and handling risks.
3.
Effective, long term reductions can only be achieved by sensitizing
users to problems, monitoring the waste stream, and following up
regularly with waste producers who are not conforming.

We
handle our waste differently than others. Will the Walsh
Waste Tracker Program
still work?
Answer: Yes. Because every hospital is different, Walsh Waste Tracker Program can be
modified to meet varying needs and requirements.
Before installation, WALSH carries out a detailed evaluation of your
needs along with you. Walsh Waste Tracker is then setup to meet
those needs.

We use
"Universal Precaution". Can we still use Walsh Waste Tracker?
Answer: Absolutely. As a matter of fact, Walsh
Waste Tracker will increase the
efficacy of your entire system.
A
system of Universal Precaution does not preclude the possibility of
stick wounds, leaking boxes, or other problems. Walsh Waste Tracker
will work to identify those users who are not following guidelines,
and will help you to get them in line.
In
addition, you will be able to see what Universal Precaution is
actually costing you, on a department-by-department basis. When you
see one department whose costs are out of line, you may then take
corrective action such as additional training, or increased signage.
Walsh Waste Tracker helps you get the most out of Universal
Precaution.

How
much effort will be required to run the Waste Tracker consulting
service?
Answer: Some effort will be required.
We
adapt the Walsh Waste Tracker Program to meet your operations. We do not change the way you operate to
accommodate Walsh Waste Tracker.
In
addition, your worker or manager who will use the system will be
trained on how to get the most out of the software. The Walsh Waste
Tracker Software is Internet based, and is specifically designed for
people who are not computer experts.
Friendly and helpful telephone support is always available, as are
additional training sessions. Walsh Waste Tracker is powerful yet
easy to use!

Are there other
modules included in your Waste Management program?
Answer:
Walsh Waste Tracker does more than just manage your biomedical
waste. The following modules are also available:
RECYCLING MODULE
Track and manage all your
information concerning your recyclable stream:
-
Which areas in the hospital are producing
what?
-
What steps should be taken to improve
recycling?
WALSH WASTE AUDIT
This module allows you to quickly and safely audit a variety of
waste streams, including RMW. You will produce a detailed Audit
Report, suitable for presentation.

Couldn't we do this using a pen and paper? Why should we use Walsh
Waste Tracker?
Answer:
Yes, but you would not succeed in the
long run. The
amount of effort required to do this manually would outweigh any
benefits. To reduce
biomedical waste in a hospital with numerous waste generators,
requires continual attention and service. Because the Walsh Waste
Tracker Technology is automated, your time commitment is minimal (a
few minutes per week).
Effectively reducing expenses in the long term, with a controllable
amount of work and at a low cost, requires a systematic and
automated approach. Walsh Waste Tracker provides that approach.
Studies have shown that on average, up to 65% of the biomedical
waste stream is not biomedical waste.
Proper segregation of waste, at the point of generation, reduces
volumes and reduces costs.

program is an integrated system of

The system incorporates the latest handheld computer technologies
with WALSH's expertise in waste management and cost reduction.
