ABOUT ID JANE
ID Jane is a comprehensive identification system that was created based on a need to provide peace of mind and security to clients. ID Jane is a visual based system that aligns a single, custom image with each person. This familiar visual is specific to each individual and is recognizable to caregivers, patients, family members, and staff. The goal of ID Jane is to alleviate frustrations by providing an organized system.
HOW ID JANE MEETS YOUR NEEDS
LIVING SPACE
As Wayne Dyer stated, “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change”. This is where ID Jane is an asset and benefit to your patients. As a patient makes life changes and transitions into a care facility while also facing mental challenges such as dementia and Alzheimer’s, how the change is perceived is pivotal in its success. Instead of seeing a standard care facility we want to change how the process looks to the family members and patient. ID Jane brings familiarity, warmth, and a sense of home to each patient though its recognition system. By providing a more customized living space through this image recognition it is our hope that the patient feels secure in this environment. Living space ideas that can be customized can include:
- Door Plaques
- Artwork with Image
- Headboards
- Wheelchair Monogram
- Shower Chairs
- Commode Covers
- Remote Controls
- Closet Doors
- Lamps
- Garment Racks
PERSONAL ITEMS
The customization of personal items is a trend right now, but it can also be a great organizational opportunity as well for care facilities. Customizing personal items with the single image allows the caregiver to easily recognize who it belongs to and gives a sense of peace and comfort to the patient through repetitive familiarity. Another feature of ID Jane, regarding personal items, is that it allows family members to purchase gifts or special items and the single image theme is the constant. We have the option of setting up a family member portal for ordering or purchasing these items. We can utilize vinyl, screen printing, patches, or embroidery depending upon the item. Some examples include:
Clothing
- Shirts
- Pants
- Socks
- Sweaters
- Jackets
- Coats
- Hats
- Gloves
- Pajamas
- Slippers
Linens
- Blanket
- Sheets
- Pillowcases
- Bedspreads
- Mattress Covers
- Towels
- Shower Curtains
Other
- Chairs
- Kindle Covers
- Bible Covers
- Shower Chairs
- Stationery
STAFF EFFICIENCY
It is common knowledge that turnover in the medical industry is significant. In the medical industry another common obstacle is rotating shifts. In both situations there can be gaps in communication and confusion during the transition. These obstacles can lead already confused patients to become agitated, can lead to misplacement of items, and can cause opportunities for mistakes to occur in patient care. The ID Jane system can lessen the stress that can be experienced by patients because of the repetitive, single image concept.
While the changes occur, the patient will have peace and security within their living spaces and routines because the image remains constant. The ID Jane system also alleviates obstacles for staff. As new staff are onboarded, they can quickly learn the image attached to each patient and recognize it easily. As the staff rotates shifts, they will also become familiar with each patient and their image. It provides a way to organize, recognize, and mitigate loss of items, mix up of items, and lessens the possibility of mistakes. This system is not to replace numbered systems and requirements but to enhance them by providing recognition. The care facility can continue with the image theme even with staff members by embroidering or screen-printing scrubs with an image the staff member selects. The options are limitless, and we are always adding possibilities to the system.
LAUNDRY
Laundry services are an essential aspect of any care facility. Assuring that laundry is properly handled and returned to the correct person is important. With ID Jane we want to take identification to the next level. We would continue the theme of a familiar single image attached to each patient. We would then be able to heat seal, heat dye transfer, stamp, patch, screen print, or embroider items with this image for easy recognition. Some examples of laundry service items include:
- Facility Garment Racks
- Laundry Bags and Liners
Linens
- Pillowcases
- Sheets
- Bedspreads
- Mattress Covers
- Blankets
COMING SOON
Failure to properly sterilize and launder items correctly can promote a bacteria friendly environment. In any care facility bodily fluids are common and it is important to properly care for these items and prevent contamination. We will soon be providing all laundering service options to include pick up, cleaning, and drop off. Hypoallergenic options will be available.
