We recently shared a blog post about the importance of ergonomic solutions in catering, and just how using the right equipment can positively impact the health and wellbeing of staff. Ergonomic solutions are just as important in medical settings, and ensuring technicians are protected in their day-to-day roles can keep staff happy and processes efficient.
The medical environment sees staff carrying out a range of different roles, from packing in sterilisation rooms to preparing drugs and medicines ready for distribution to patients. Here at Hupfer, we aim to make all our equipment easy to use, preventing any repetitive movements or strains that could cause injury.
Hupfer’s Medical Packing Stations and Inspection Tables
Medical packing and inspection tables from Hupfer are vital pieces of equipment for daily use which are available in mobile versions for full flexibility. They are made of high-quality stainless steel in hygienic design, with hydraulic height adjustment systems for ergonomic adaptation to different body sizes. Our inspection and work tables also have height-adjustable plastic feet to reduce possible floor unevenness and improve comfort.
In order to create the ideal packing station, our packing equipment provides a wide range of individual options for use, as well as options for adapting it to diverse circumstances. The digital display ensures an exact and easy-to-read indication of the set working height. Hook frames in small or large are also available for use with our range of packing tables to provide even more stability and ease of packing, as well as giving technicians everything they need in one place.
How can technicians be protected with our ergonomic equipment?
Our ergonomic packing and inspection equipment is perfect for any medical environment. Here are just some of the ergonomic features we incorporate into this equipment, and just how these features can help the operator.
Height-adjustable
Making our packing and inspection tables height-adjustable means that anyone can use this equipment with ease. Customising equipment to an individual before work begins ensures there is no strain or difficulties when carrying out daily tasks.
Easy to manoeuvre
Moving equipment to different departments should be easy with minimal strain for staff. Our packing and inspection equipment protects technicians from injury that could occur from transporting heavy weighted equipment to different areas and longer distances in a specific department.
Improves efficiency
Ergonomic solutions aren’t just for the safety of staff, but are also great for improving efficiency of work. The better the equipment used by staff, the quicker tasks become and the easier they are to be completed. Better ergonomic equipment means a single member of staff can use/operate a piece of equipment instead of relying on help from another.
Creates more manageable tasks
Easier processes ensure tasks are more manageable for staff and can create a more productive workforce. Ensuring staff are spending minimal time standing, bending or reaching excessively can help to prevent fatigue.
