The Challenge: Personnel-Dependent Knowledge Reaches Its Limits in the Course of Company Growth
In order to support the staff more and share responsibilities fairly among them, the nursing home management quickly realised that there should be a professional, universal system. On the one hand, this system should be understandable for everyone and, on the other hand, it should be ready for use quickly. The choice quickly fell on Timly and the construction of the Schillerhaus was a clear starting signal for the large-scale roll-out of the software.
However, it should not only be possible to store inventories and equipment. Instead, a holistic solution should help to work more systematically. The goal is to display all maintenance dates, defects, cleaning cycles and more in the Timly Inventory App in the future.
The Solution: Systematic Data Collection Provides the Necessary Overview
Complying With Legal Requirements
As the Gleisdorf nursing home is subject to many legal requirements, one of the most important factors in the introduction of Timly’s inventory app was the fact that every single asset was listed and every check noted.
To make this possible, each patient room is provided with an individual QR code so that the information regarding which assets are (supposed to be) in the room and which tasks and work result from them can always be seen by the necessary personnel.
This overview ensures that the legal requirements in the areas of emergency, fire and hygiene can be met.
The training management software can also be used to record which person has carried out or still has to carry out which action (e.g. room cleaning or material washing), so that questions regarding responsibilities and scheduling are clearly regulated and generally clarified.
Manage Maintenance & Services
The Maintenance Management & Service Management module in Timly allows future repairs to be managed more efficiently. The integrated deadline planner makes it possible to keep track of the necessary safety checks and maintenance of the numerous devices and machines in a central location. Here, a differentiation is made between time-dependent and time-independent deadlines, such as weekly, monthly and quarterly deadlines.
On the one hand, this helps in terms of the compliance factor, and on the other hand, it also gives indications of vulnerabilities and problems of assets, so that better planning and more professional budgeting is possible.
Damage reports to the technical team are to be automated, so that shorter paths are created and faster decisions can be made.
Keeping Track of Inventory Made Easy
Added to this is efficient working capital management. Here, too, the factor of planning security and planning possibilities is in the foreground. The digitalisation of equipment management ensures that neither too much nor too little inventory is purchased, which in turn has a positive effect on the company’s figures.

“Timly has proven to be a very reliable and flexible partner in all areas. Concerns and wishes are always dealt with and implemented directly.”
(Home Director Thomas Weiß, BA MA M.Ed.)
Result: Vision of the Perfect Planning Options
In the long term, the app will be used to record operating materials such as disposable gloves and hygiene articles, as well as maintenance dates and service requirements. The digital inventory management with Timly is to be fully implemented in the course of the year.
The nursing home is even planning on hiring a specific employee in the administration for this implementation.
We are happy to accompany the BPH on its way to digitalisation and remain in close contact so that we can provide direct support in case of questions or comments.
