Cleaner Wards, Tracked Task by Task
Care18 replaces radio calls and whiteboards with task tickets that move from Pending to In progress to Done. Ward and room cleaning schedules, linen rounds and waste collection all sit on one board, and housekeeping sees exactly which beds are waiting for turnover before the next admission.
- Pending, In progress, Done task tickets
- Ward and room cleaning schedules
- Linen and waste rounds
- Bed turnover tied to bed status
What is Housekeeping Management in Care18?
Housekeeping Management in Care18 turns cleaning and facility upkeep into tracked work. Every request becomes a task ticket with a clear status — Pending, In progress and Done — assigned to the right team member with the ward, room or area noted. Daily schedules cover wards, rooms and high-traffic areas, while linen and waste rounds are planned alongside them. Because it shares bed status with Bed Management, a discharged bed automatically appears as cleaning work, and housekeeping can mark it ready for the next patient once the round is complete.
- Task tickets with Pending, In progress and Done statuses
- Ward and room cleaning schedules for the day
- Linen replacement and waste collection rounds
- Cleaning work triggered by discharge bed status
- Assignment to team members with area and priority
Key Benefits
Accountable Cleaning Work
Each task has a status, an owner and an area, so nothing depends on verbal handovers or a supervisor chasing corridors.
Faster Bed Turnover
Discharged beds appear as cleaning tasks immediately, and marking them Done releases them for the next admission without delay.
Consistent Standards
Written schedules for wards, rooms and high-traffic areas keep the same routine on every shift instead of ad-hoc cleaning.
Clearer Shift Handovers
Outstanding tickets carry into the next shift with full context, so pending work is visible rather than quietly forgotten.
Key Features
Task Tickets
Raise cleaning requests as tickets that move from Pending to In progress to Done with an owner and timestamp for every area.
Ward & Room Schedules
Plan daily and periodic cleaning for wards, rooms and common areas, with rounds assigned to the housekeeping team shift by shift.
Linen Rounds
Schedule linen replacement per ward and room, tracking what has been collected, changed and replenished during each round so shortages surface early.
Waste Collection
Log waste collection rounds for general, biohazard and recyclable streams with area, timing and responsible staff recorded against the schedule.
Bed Turnover Coordination
Cleaning tasks link to bed status, so a bed moves from Cleaning to Available only once housekeeping marks the work Done.
Area-wise Dashboards
Supervisors see open tickets by ward, floor and priority, helping assign the next task where it is needed most.
Housekeeping Workflow in Care18
From raised ticket to ready bed, cleaning work stays visible for staff and admissions alike.
