Whether in emergencies or planned admissions, patients carry valuables and personal items with them and bring them to the hospital and they do everything they can to prevent anything from going missing. The ZippScan application enables simple and accurate documentation of valuables, creating more security for healthcare facilities and patients simultaneously.

Development with a Swiss hospital
Working with the Swiss cantonal hospital in Baden, we learned a lot about the many challenges involved in managing valuables and developed the ZippScan application.
Documentation means stress
In addition to clothing and regular luggage, patients almost always bring valuables with them and handling them safely during their procedure is crucial. For the hospital, this means stress, manual effort and chaos. Why do nursing staff enjoy ZippScan and why do patients benefit at the same time? We will provide you with all the reasons.

MANUAL DOCUMENTATION IS INEFFICIENT
Upon admission, it is mandatory to document which valuables have been brought in They must be recorded in writing, which costs the nursing staff valuable time and can sometimes be inaccurate. The high manual effort is both inefficient and costly.
LIABILITY FOR THEFT IS EXCLUDED
Many hospitals exclude liability for theft. This solution is not sufficient for patients, especially as they are sometimes defenceless against theft due to their state of health. Despite the exclusion of liability, many hospitals are therefore forced to make goodwill payments.
