For the last few weeks, we’ve been posting about unique pieces of equipment manufactured by US Pod Box that serve a variety of purposes. Today, we want to talk them for use as a nurses’ station. Specifically, we want to highlight the Mobipod Desk System.
In a traditional health care facility, the nurses’ station serves as the administrative center for nursing care. It is generally centrally located in a unit or ward to assist nurses in the oversight of care for patients in the surrounding vicinity. The tasks that are performed within the nurses’ station are not only administrative in nature; from here there are also clinically related functions that can have a critical and direct impact on patient care and safety. Therefore, it is important that the nurses’ station is well thought out.
So, what do you do when health care is being provided outside of your brick and mortar facility? Or, you are forced to utilize alternative spaces in your facility to accommodate an influx of patients? How do you ensure that your nurses’ station is right where it should be and that it has everything your administrators need to get the job done? This is an important question and one that should be considered when planning for hospital surge capabilities, disaster response and relief, and other emergency preparedness situations.
When medicine is performed in a temporary work environment such as that in a mass casualty event, the nurses’ work station becomes more vital than ever. It’s critical that your emergency staff stay organized and be able to facilitate from one central point. In a situation like this, the Mobipod Desk System from US POD Box can serve as a mobile nurses’ station or command center.
Designed as a mobile administrative workstation, the Mobipod Desk System from US Pod Box can be purchased as a workspace for one or two individuals. It offers a removeable table/tables that attach to the side of the case. It also has three drawers for supplies, paperwork or anything else your nurses may need. The entire unit folds up and rolls on EZ Glide casters to move from one location to another. The rugged exterior will protect the contents and make sure your unit lasts for years.
