The United States Census Bureau claims that the number of uninsured Americans rose to nearly 16%, or 47 million people, in 2006. This rise could be attributed to the rising costs of healthcare. As a result, more and more of America's ill are occupying local emergency rooms for their non-emergent ailments. The front door of hospitals has become the emergency room.
At McMurray Stern, we believe that a more organized and space optimized emergency room would help aid against overcrowding and diversion of patients. The ability to add beds and bring your emergency supplies to the point-of-need would significantly increase the efficiency of the department. Emergency room situations often require quick thinking and reaction. Your supplies need to be accessible at any given moment. Everything from clean storage, medical equipment storage, to sterile supply storage, and suture storage need to be close at hand.
