ABOUT MOBILE WORKSTATIONS
Mobile workstations, also called medical carts, medical computer carts, laptop carts, or mobile carts are free-standing compartmental platforms equipped with wheels or casters, designed to transport the varying array of computers and technology used by medical professionals. Mobile workstations can also be equipped with batteries to supply power to onboard devices and prolong the life of already-battery-powered devices.
Mobile workstations allow medical professionals to spend more time with patients by putting all the information they need at the point-of-care. Simple access to information and the mobility provided by these carts allows providers to deliver better care more efficiently and with more accuracy. Access to Electronic Medical Records through mobile workstations can save healthcare providers a significant amount of time and drastically improve efficiency in all departments.
Real-time access to patient information at the bedside also increases patient safety by reducing the opportunity for error. In addition, barcode scanners and printers that can be carried and powered by mobile workstations allow for direct labeling and scanning of patient wristbands and medication to ensure proper dosing and medication schedules.
