Stocking Education 8/21/2024 Question Title * 1. Purpose: We have been impacted by increased supply costs due to overstocking supplies in rooms or incorrect stocking. Our expense accounts are over budget due to this. Therefore, we need to better manage our supplies so we are not wasting, misusing, or misplacing supplies such as briefs, liners, wipes, gloves, glucometers, blue slip sheets, etc. Overstocking or incorrect stocking has led to a significant increase in costs. Overstocking or incorrect stocking has not led to any changes in costs. Question Title * 2. Each resident/patient has information on their pocket notes to help you know what items need to be stocked in their rooms. Select the 2 correct answers below: The pocket notes tell you the type/style and size of incontinent product The pocket notes tell you how many wipes to stock in each room You should be able to look at the pocket notes and know what to stock in each room. You should only stock the supplies that are necessary and NOT additional supplies that the resident/patient does not use. Question Title * 3. If you are stocking a resident's room and notice the room is full of supplies, what should you do? Take the supply you were going to stock back to the supply closet or central supply. Do not over stock the room. Add the supply to the current stock. Over stock the room. Question Title * 4. In the past 7 months, we have lost 72 blue slip sheets. This came to over $1,000 of product lost. The blue slip sheets are OWNED by St. Paul and should NOT be sent to the external laundry with sheets and towels. Blue slip sheets need to be sent to our laundry with personal items. I understand Blue Slip sheets go to our laundry and should get sent down with personal clothing. I do not understand the process for blue slip sheets. Question Title * 5. General Guide for Stocking Supplies:Gloves: Enough to fit in the glove holder. Replace box when the last glove is taken out.Incontinent products: 1 opened package, add 1 closed package when the opened package is half-used or nearing empty. No more than that is necessary.Wipes: 1 package, replace when nearing empty.DO NOT STOCK any supplies that are not needed or not used by the resident/patient. I agree, only stock what is necessary I disagree Question Title * 6. Please review the photos. Some of these photos are supplies stocked in rooms for residents who do not wear incontinent products or do not wear the brands stocked. If a resident/patient supplies their own product, do not supply the room with our supplies. Overstocked supplies should not be reused for other residents or patients. Please do not overstock supplies.Why is it important to not overstock supplies? Question Title * 7. Acknowledge Question Title * 8. Acknowledge Question Title * 9. Acknowledge Question Title * 10.
