Item Recalls Overview

Use the Item Recalls feature to identify and locate recalled items within your system. The Item Recalls module can identify recalled items in a kit scan, generate alerts when creating new item tags for a recalled item, as well as improve how you locate recalled items currently in your hospital. Additionally, the Recommended Recalls feature will alert you when a recall is added by another hospital in the KitCheck network. 

The Message Board on the Dashboard will notify you when items are recalled from the KitCheck network or when a recall is created within your hospital.

To access the Item Recalls feature:

1. From the User Account drop-down, select Hospital Settings. 
2. Select Item Recalls.
