Today is tax day. I'm usually one of those people who files their
taxes at the last minute. I was more organized this year and filed my taxes early. I have learned from past experience to organize my paperwork at this time of year so that I wouldn't have to dig through multiple folders and stacks of papers trying to find
the appropriate statements. I have spent more time looking for the paperwork than actually preparing my taxes. I remember thinking to myself, this would have gone much more smoothly if I had labeled everything.
Organization and labeling play large roles not only with your home
tax preparations, but also in healthcare facilities. There are a wide range of uses for labeling products such as bar codes, communication and tracking systems. Whether staff need to be alerted about maintenance needs, or communicate between departments that
items are clean or biohazard, labels help minimize misunderstandings about tray contents.
It is especially important for device reprocessing departments to
use PP-based labels that are suitable for sterilization. Their durability will withstand washing, disinfection and sterilization.
Be sure to use labeling systems in your department to stay on top
of organization and staff communication!
