In this customer story from Censis Technologies, Angela Sullivan, the Interim SPD Manager at St. Michael Medical Center in Silverdale, Washington, shares her experience with CensiTrac, Censis’ tracking system. St. Michael Medical Center is a sizable hospital with multiple departments, including orthopedics and the main operating room, each with a unique set of instruments.

This streamlines the process, eliminating the need for phone calls or manual searches.

The ease of accessing the system through a computer, logging in, and instantly finding the required information is a game-changer. CensiTrac puts all the necessary information at your fingertips, eliminating the time-consuming task of searching for different items and enhancing the overall efficiency of instrument management in a healthcare facility.
