Compliance and efficiencies ‘significantly improved’ at Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn

In a busy hospital catering environment, food safety, traceability and patient service are critical. At The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn NHS Foundation Trust, the catering team manages high volumes of daily food production, with strict compliance requirements across delivery, preparation and service.

Before introducing Kelsius FoodCheck 2.0, the team relied heavily on paper-based records. This created challenges around incomplete documentation, damaged paperwork, manual checks and limited real-time visibility of fridge and freezer performance.

 

Following implementation of the Kelsius system, the hospital moved to digital food safety records, automated temperature monitoring and real-time reporting. Staff now complete checks using tablets and probes, while supervisors have instant visibility of completed and outstanding tasks.

The result is a more efficient, transparent and audit-ready approach to food safety. The team has reduced paperwork, improved accountability, strengthened compliance, and gained better insight into food waste and menu planning.

With Kelsius FoodCheck 2.0, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn has created a simpler, smarter and more reliable way to manage food safety, supporting both operational performance and patient service.

Kelsius protects over 90 pharmacy fridges and freezers at St Vincent’s University Hospital

St. Vincent’s University Hospital (SVUH), one of Ireland’s leading academic teaching hospitals, needed a reliable way to continuously monitor more than 90 medication fridges across its campus, including out of hours and at weekends. 

With the Kelsius remote, wireless and paperless temperature monitoring system, SVUH now has 24-hour visibility of fridges, freezers and incubators containing medication, with real-time alerts, corrective action records and reporting available through the Kelsius portal.

 

 

The system has helped SVUH respond quickly to temperature deviations, identify trends such as doors left ajar, and strengthen medication storage compliance across the hospital. Over one three-month period, the potential maximum financial saving from avoided stock loss was approximately €120,000.

THE BENEFITS OF USING THE KELSIUS SYSTEM

Describing how the Kelsius system has helped his business, Keith said, “Before we got Kelsius in, we just had paper trails. It was a nightmare. When we lost power overnight, we ended up losing an awful lot of stock. Kelsius has saved that from happening ever again…It’s absolutely transformed our business. It’s saved me tonnes of money!”

Staff no longer need to record temperatures manually throughout the day. Fridge and freezer temperatures are monitored continuously and all readings are automatically recorded within the system.

Digital records can be accessed at any time and compliance reports can be generated quickly when required. This helps the business demonstrate food safety procedures during inspections.

Real-time alerts also provide an additional safeguard. If a fridge or freezer temperature moves outside the correct range, the Kelsius system sends an alert so staff can respond quickly and take action.

The result is less time spent on paperwork, clear records for compliance, and reassurance that temperatures are being monitored at all times.
