MEDSTOR, which specialises in medical storage solutions, recently completed a major project at North Devon District Hospital, refurbishing the anaesthetic rooms, prep rooms and surrounding storage areas of seven operating theatres.
Medstor has a flourishing relationship with the hospital, having been involved with many initiatives over recent years to improve and streamline practice and storage capacity in various departments.
With its focus on combining the highest manufacturing standards with design-led, stylish storage solutions, Medstor’s products are both highly effective and ideally suited to the modern hospital environment, and were the ideal choice when North Devon District Hospital wanted to bring storage in the theatre area in line with that in the rest of the hospital.
Medstor installed a variety of products from its portfolio, including base and wall cabinets, worktops, and full height cabinets. The stylish cabinets ensure easy location of goods and eliminate stock-outs, and are perfect for high volume storage needs and organising supplies quickly. The range can be customised to meet each hospital’s requirements – North Devon District Hospital, units were fitted with a mixture of clear and solid polycarbonate doors, to allow easy identification of contents where required.
Maureen Rothery, acting deputy theatre manager, said: “The units have been a great asset to the operating theatres at North Devon District Hospital. They have improved the patient environment as well as allowing the department to organise its stock holding levels and improve stock rotation.”
