Case Study: a major public hospital digitises mould-infected records with ADEC Preview Solutions

Major Public Hospital - Customer Case Study

A major public hospital in New South Wales faced a significant challenge when a fungi infestation contaminated its entire secondary storage facility, creating health and safety risks for staff who needed to retrieve critical patient records for ongoing operations. The hospital engaged ADEC Preview Solutions, an expert in document digitisation, to securely and promptly digitise the mould-affected records.

ADEC Preview Solutions implemented a meticulous process where a trained team, using PPE, catalogued and retrieved the documents for scanning in a dedicated HAZMAT room. The solution included a 24/7 scan-on-demand service for urgent files, which were uploaded within hours. ADEC Preview successfully digitised 56,000 records containing 6.1 million images, completing the project five weeks early and enabling safe, immediate access to the hospital's critical data.
