CareFit Combo System Brings Clinicians Closer
to Patients in New Emergency Department
CHESTERFIELD, UNITED KINGDOMThe emergency department at
Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS
Foundation Trust was built in the 1970s
to accommodate 50,000 patientsannually. Now clinicians are treating
more than 100,000 patients per year—
many with complex conditions andcare needs.

The organization decided to invest ina new, £27m Urgent and Emergency
Care Development to address thosechanging needs and to create a more
efficient and quality-focused patient
experience. As part of the process,they needed to implement newworkstations.

“The flexibility they offer in position and height is fantastic while maintaining their robustness at the core.
CareFit Combo System looks and feels high-quality and well-designed—so rare in NHS!”— Katherine Lendrum, MD, Emergency Department Clinical Lead

“With changing requirements inhealthcare, limits on a clinician’s time,and pressures on workforce, we need
to work more efficiently and closer with
our patients,” said Anthony Kenny, thesite’s program director.
In the current emergency department,
clinicians roll mobile medical carts
between rooms or return to a central
desk space to complete electronic
patient records (EPR). This creates
extra steps for clinicians and reducestime spent with patients. With the new
design, they needed a workstationthat could:• Support efficient documentation
within the clinical bays• Comply with infection prevention
control standards• Easily move to face the patient or
stow when not in use• Accommodate paper notes and a
keyboard to update the EPR
Chesterfield Royal Hospital clinicianstested multiple wall workstations, andthe response was overwhelmingly
positive for Ergotron’s CareFit Combo
System with Worksurface. They gave
the wall workstation high marks for its
ergonomic design, cleanability andeasy maneuverability.

Clinicians noted how they wouldn’t
have to wait for a mobile workstationor leave the clinical space to order
tests or complete documentation. The
modern design also complemented thenew aesthetic.
“The equipment looks robust andprofessional,” Mr. Kenny said. “It adds
an air of quality to the new build that is
not common among NHS departments.”
Hospital leadership also called out
CareFit Combo System’s durability towithstand the high traffic care area
and the flexibility to meet the uniqueergonomic needs of each user.
