Nurses on a high-volume labor and delivery unit are expected to stock patient rooms in addition to their clinical duties, which is burdensome and takes time away from patient care and rest.

Workarounds Described

• Nurses manually check and restock rooms during any spare moment
• PCT role was proposed to be changed to stock rooms but nurses preferred doing IVs/foleys themselves

Implied Software Gaps

• Automated inventory tracking system to monitor and predict supply needs
• Task assignment platform to assign stocking duties to appropriate staff (e.g., PCTs) without dumping on nurses

StockShift Pro

StockShift Pro is a mobile-first inventory and task management app for hospital units that automates room restocking workflows, predicts supply needs based on usage patterns, and assigns stocking tasks to appropriate staff (e.g., PCTs, central supply) so nurses can focus on patient care. It reduces manual tracking and ensures rooms are always ready without adding to nursing workload.
