How does Memorial Hospital monitor their refrigerators?

Memorial Hospital utilizes electronic monitoring systems to oversee their refrigerators continuously, operating 24/7. This method ensures that temperature fluctuations can be detected in real-time, minimizing the risk of spoilage or other potential issues related to improper storage conditions. The electronic system provides consistent and accurate oversight, allowing for immediate alerts if temperatures fall outside the acceptable range. This proactive approach enhances patient safety and compliance with standards set by regulatory bodies, as maintaining proper refrigeration is crucial for the storage of medications and laboratory specimens. By implementing such technology, the hospital can better ensure that the integrity of temperature-sensitive items is preserved at all times.
