Hospital Valet Parking: In-House vs. Outsourcing.
Many hospitals that partner with HealthPark for their valet parking needs often begin by investigating whether or not to start an in-house program or partner with a hospital valet parking provider.
Here are just a few of the multitude of issues to consider when comparing in-house vs. outsourcing:
- Specialized expertise – Do you have the technical know-how to create and manage a patient-centered hospital valet parking program?
- Bandwidth – Once parking management is up and running, do you have the additional time to manage, train and hire new valet attendants?
- Efficiency – Are you aware of the most effective methods to increase utilization of the valet service and volume of cars parked?
- Flexibility – How are you going to handle details such as changing service hours or adjusting FTEs as volume projections fluctuate?
Hospitals specialize in the best medical care, not valet parking. A valet parking program such as HealthPark’s offers the peace-of-mind of ensuring a positive patient experience. With our proprietary ROVI℠ (Return on Valet Investment) calculator, we can demonstrate how we optimize operational efficiencies while reducing costs for hospitals.
