Healthcare · Managed platform (Stanley / AeroScout)

Asset Tracking

Know where your wheelchairs, pumps and mobile equipment are, with the tracking system run for you

Overview

What you are buying

Moraph resells, implements and runs the Stanley Healthcare AeroScout real-time location system for hospitals, so staff can find mobile equipment and clinical engineering can manage it. AeroScout tags on wheelchairs, infusion pumps and other mobile devices report their location over your Wi-Fi network, and Moraph configures maps, zones, par levels and alerts around your workflows. Moraph monitors the system, manages tag health and changes, and reviews the service with you every month.

The problem it solves

In most hospitals, nurses and transport staff spend part of every shift looking for equipment that is somewhere in the building. Units hoard pumps and wheelchairs so they are not caught short, clinical engineering cannot find devices that are due for preventive maintenance or affected by a recall, and the hospital rents or buys more equipment than it would need if it could see what it has. Where a location system has been installed, it often drifts out of shape: tags go flat, maps fall behind renovations and nobody owns the alerts.

  • Staff search units and storage rooms for equipment that is needed now
  • Devices due for maintenance or affected by a recall are hard to locate
  • Units keep extra equipment because they cannot see what is available
  • Installed tracking systems decay without someone running them

Who uses it

  • Clinical engineering and biomedical teams at hospitals and health systems
  • Nurse managers and unit leaders who need equipment on hand
  • Central equipment distribution and supply chain teams
  • IT and network teams who support the Wi-Fi infrastructure the tags use
  • Facilities and environment of care leaders who answer for equipment management

    Moraph and your team go through what changed, what happened and what is still open.

Workflows

The principal workflows

  1. Locate

    AeroScout tags report their position over your Wi-Fi network, with exciters at doorways and in rooms where you need finer accuracy. Staff search for equipment by type or asset number and see where the nearest available device is.

    • Equipment is tagged and registered against its asset record
    • Tags report location to the AeroScout software over your Wi-Fi network
    • Staff search by device type, asset number or unit
    • The map shows the nearest devices and their status
    • Searches that fail are logged for Moraph to investigate
  2. Balance

    Par levels are set for each unit and storage area, so the system shows where a unit is short or holding more than it needs, and central distribution can move equipment before anyone has to search.

    • Par levels agreed with each unit and with central distribution
    • AeroScout compares the equipment in each zone against its par level
    • Shortfalls and surpluses are shown to the distribution team
    • Equipment is moved and the change is visible on the map
    • Par levels are reviewed with unit leaders at the service review
  3. Maintain

    Clinical engineering finds devices due for preventive maintenance or named in a recall, and devices tagged as needing cleaning or repair are kept apart from those ready for use.

    • Maintenance due dates and recall lists come from your maintenance system
    • AeroScout shows where each affected device was last located
    • Technicians collect the devices and record the work in your maintenance system
    • Devices returned to service show as available again
    • Devices that cannot be found are listed for follow-up
  4. Operate

    Moraph monitors the system, replaces and re-registers tags, keeps maps and zones in step with your buildings, applies approved changes and reports on the service.

    • Moraph watches system health, tag batteries and location accuracy
    • Issues are triaged and escalated to your team where a decision is needed
    • Changes are requested by your team and approved by your named approver
    • Moraph applies and records each change
    • The monthly service review covers changes, issues and open actions

How access is controlled

  • Moraph engineers apply changes; your hospital approves them. Nobody approves a change they requested themselves when a second approver is named.
  • Moraph staff use named, individual accounts in AeroScout with only the administrative rights the service needs. There are no shared administrator accounts.
  • Roles are agreed during implementation and can be limited by building, unit or department, so a unit manager sees the equipment that matters to their unit.
  • Every change is recorded with its request and approval in Moraph's change record. Auditors and surveyors get read-only evidence with a defined scope and end date.

Features

What it does

Equipment search

AeroScout shows staff where a device type or a specific asset is, on a floor map, with the nearest available units first.

Room and doorway accuracy

Exciters placed at doorways and in selected rooms give room-level or chokepoint location where Wi-Fi alone is not precise enough, in the areas you choose.

Par level management

Each unit and storage area has agreed par levels, and AeroScout shows where equipment is short or in surplus so it can be moved.

Zone alerts

AeroScout raises alerts when tagged equipment enters or leaves a defined zone, such as a building exit or a loading dock, routed to the people you choose.

Maintenance and recall locating

Devices due for preventive maintenance or named in a recall are matched to their last known location so technicians can collect them.

Equipment status

Devices can be marked as in use, ready, needs cleaning or out for repair, so staff are not sent to equipment that cannot be used.

Utilization reporting

How much each device type is used, where it spends its time and how many sit idle, to inform purchasing and rental decisions.

Tag health management

Moraph watches tag battery levels and tags that have stopped reporting, and replaces or re-registers them as part of the service.

Map and zone upkeep

Floor plans, zones and exciter placements are kept up to date as units move or are renovated, under your change process.

Location accuracy checks

Moraph tests location accuracy in agreed areas after changes to the building or the Wi-Fi network and records the results.

Maintenance system link

Asset records are kept consistent with your computerized maintenance management system, so tags, serial numbers and asset numbers match.

Monthly service review

Changes, issues, tag health, utilization and open actions reviewed with your clinical engineering and nursing leads.

Security and privacy

How your data is protected

Named Moraph administrators

Moraph staff work in AeroScout with individual accounts and only the administrative rights the service needs; there are no shared accounts.

Role-based access

What each person at your hospital and at Moraph can see and do follows their role; requesting a change is separate from approving it.

Patient information

The service tracks equipment, not people. Where location data could be linked to a patient, it is handled as protected health information under a business associate agreement.

Complete audit trail

Moraph's change record links every configuration change to its request and approval, alongside the activity AeroScout records.

Encryption and keys

Service records Moraph holds are encrypted, with keys Moraph staff cannot use without explicit, time-bound authorization.

Audited company-wide

Moraph is audited to SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001 across the company, including the teams that run this service. The vendor's own commitments cover the platform.

Company-wide controls, independent audits (SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001) and data residency are described in our Trust Center, where you can request the evidence pack.

Exports, access and evidence

  • Service reports are prepared by Moraph from AeroScout reports and from Moraph's own change and ticket records.
  • AeroScout's own reports remain available in the software to the staff you authorize.
  • Reports respect each viewer's role: unit managers see their own units, and auditors see only the evidence within their scope.
  • Utilization and location history can be exported to your data warehouse for capital planning alongside other equipment data.
  • Requesting and exporting an evidence pack is itself recorded, so you can show what was given to whom.

Deployment

Where and how it runs

Licences and hardware through Moraph

Moraph resells AeroScout software, tags and exciters and runs the system as one service, subject to the vendor's terms.

Your existing AeroScout system

If you already own AeroScout, Moraph reviews the current configuration and tag estate against a new baseline and takes over its operation.

Co-managed

Your clinical engineering team keeps some tasks, such as tagging new equipment, and Moraph runs the rest; the split is written into the responsibilities for the service.

Security controls, independent audits and data residency are set out in our Trust Center. Engagement models and what drives a quotation are on Working with Moraph.

Implementation

What a rollout involves

The general phases are on Working with Moraph. For this product, they involve the following.

Discovery

We review your floor plans, Wi-Fi coverage, equipment inventory and maintenance system with clinical engineering, nursing and IT, and agree which device types and areas come first.

Network and site assessment

We check your wireless network against the vendor's requirements and identify the areas that need exciters for room or doorway accuracy.

Baseline design

Maps, zones, par levels, equipment statuses and alerts are designed with your teams and approved by your clinical engineering manager.

Installation and tagging

Exciters are installed and equipment is tagged and registered against its asset record, area by area, with your staff giving access.

Accuracy testing and training

Location accuracy is tested in each area before it goes live, and unit staff, distribution and clinical engineering are trained on their own tasks.

Handover to operations

Change process, approvers, escalation contacts, fallback procedures and reporting are agreed, and the service moves into day-to-day operation.

Limitations

What it does not do

Worth knowing before you evaluate it.

  • Moraph is not Stanley Healthcare. The vendor provides the AeroScout platform, and its own service commitments, roadmap, maintenance and outages apply.
  • AeroScout software, tags and exciters are subject to the vendor's licence and warranty terms.
  • Location accuracy depends on your Wi-Fi network and on where exciters are installed. Areas without exciters show a less precise location.
  • Moraph does not own or run your wireless network; network problems are fixed by your network team or its provider.
  • Only tagged equipment can be located. Tags can be removed or damaged, and devices whose tags have stopped reporting show their last known location.
  • The service tracks equipment. Patient and staff tracking, infant protection and hand hygiene monitoring are not included unless agreed separately.
  • Moraph does not perform maintenance on medical devices or decide how they are managed, maintained or recalled; your clinical engineering team does.
  • The tracking system is not a replacement for your maintenance management system, which stays the record of maintenance work.

Evaluation checklist

What to test in a demonstration or pilot

Questions worth putting to us, and to any other vendor you are considering.

  1. Pick two device types your staff search for most and ask how they would be tagged, located and kept at par
  2. Review your Wi-Fi coverage with Moraph and identify areas that would need exciters
  3. Walk through a recall search from list to located devices to follow-up on those not found
  4. Review a sample configuration baseline and change request
  5. Ask how tag batteries and non-reporting tags are tracked and replaced
  6. Confirm the split of responsibilities between Moraph, the vendor, your network team and clinical engineering

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do we buy AeroScout from Moraph or from the vendor?

Either. Moraph can resell the software, tags and exciters, or run a system you already own. In both cases the vendor's terms apply.

Does it track patients or staff?

This service tracks equipment. Patient or staff tracking raises different privacy and workflow questions and would be scoped separately.

Who changes our maps, zones and par levels?

Named Moraph engineers, under change requests your approver has approved. Emergency actions follow a procedure agreed with you and are reported straight away.

What happens if the location system is down?

Moraph tells you and works to restore service, and the vendor's own support commitments apply to platform defects. Your fallback process for finding critical equipment, agreed during implementation, applies in the meantime.

How is it priced?

Software, tags and exciters are priced under the vendor's terms, and the managed service and implementation are quoted separately. See Working with Moraph for what drives a quotation.

Can we take the service back in-house?

Yes. The system and its configuration are yours; at the end of the agreement Moraph hands over the baseline, documentation and change history and removes its administrator accounts.
