Let's get growing.

Altus

Joe Hillebrand and Steven Gapski from Altus join Reid Estreicher and the Beyond the Device Podcast to discuss how Altus-Inc. healthcare workstations and carts increase mobility in clinical environments. Altus designed carts are built for clinical environments that are ergonomically friendly, easily hold computers, keyboards, and other tools used for data recording, management, and gathering so that nurses can get the vitals of patients from their bedside or in the ER without the need to travel back to the nurse’s station to manually input the information.

How Altus Medical Carts Helped Nurses During the Pandemic

Before and during the pandemic, there was a great exodus of nurses and similar healthcare providers in the industry. The long, stressful hours, the constant danger, and unhealthy work environments all contributed to this massive loss of workforce. This piles on to the healthcare crisis we’re already experiencing, so there needs to be solutions to address this issue.

At Atlus, we recognize that there’s too much attention today on patient services and satisfaction. The disregard towards clinicians could also be a contributing factor to the mass resignations, so we’re focusing on that through the Altus medical carts and workstations. In a recent podcast with 3Eye, we discussed how these devices make work easier for nurses. Keep reading to find out.

Sturdy and Well-Designed Carts

As healthcare professionals, nurses are used to visiting many patients at a time. But their experience would be better if workstations didn’t often creak, rust, or malfunction. We have solved this issue with our premium workstations and medical carts.

Our carts have aluminum frames and corrosion-resistant casters that are made to last, even with heavy-duty work. In fact, we’ve had reports of Altus products lasting for more than 12 years. In addition, we have non-porous surfaces that resist almost all kinds of liquids and chemicals. That’s why they are the safest companion during the pandemic.

Prioritizing Ergonomics and Mobility

Traveling from room to room and floor to floor is already exhausting enough. But bringing a heavy and uncomfortable workstation around brings the effort to another level. So nurses want something that’s functional, mobile, and easy to use. That way, they can easily bring workstations wherever needed.

Altus workstations and carts are made to be ergonomic. We’ve designed them to make working intuitive and hassle-free. We’ve also considered mobility for ease of travel. Of course, we’ll first conduct evaluations to ensure that every accessory or model is fit for your team. That’s how we ensure that everything is tailored to your needs.

Making Charting More Accurate

Gone are the days when nurses had to manually chart patient information with pen and paper. The shift to electronic data gathering has changed the way nurses work, but they can only do so efficiently if their workstations have the capabilities.

So aside from mobility, Altus designed carts that can easily hold computers, keyboards, and other tools used for data recording, management, and gathering. Nurses can get the vitals of patients from their bedside or in the ER—no need to travel back to the nurse’s station to manually input the information.

Exceptional Customer Service

Altus is not your shoot-by-the-hip company. We work carefully and strategically to ensure that the correct kind of product reaches our customers. That’s why our sales representatives are ready to talk about workstations, unbox them, and even perform evaluations to ensure that units are fit for the team.

We also have a 10-day quick ship program, which gives us an amazing lead time for our products. For hospitals and practice owners, you can get your orders in less than two weeks. That way, your nurses can immediately enjoy the benefits of our workstations.
