Mounting monitors at the POC for the bedside chair or the bed has even been <a target="_blank" href="https://www.dropbox.com/home?preview=Case+Study+Quick+Care.pdf">proven to lower falls</a>.<br /><br />We call this approach <a target="_blank" href="https://www.dropbox.com/home?preview=Quick+Care.pdf">QUICK CARE</a>. Caregivers appreciate the ease of set-up, not having to search for monitors, and that they are given the tools they desperately need to keep their patients safe. Monitors tie into the call bell system for a faster response time. How does this work?<br /><br />Colcom, Stanley Healthcare&rsquo;s exclusive distributor for their <a href="https://www.colcominc.com/fall-prevention.html">Fall Prevention Equipment</a>, will work side by side with your falls committee to select the best monitor for your needs. We establish best practice, select exact locations on the walls in each room, provide all in servicing and teaching to all shifts. &nbsp;<br /><br /><a href="https://www.colcominc.com/contact-us.html">Contact us</a> for more details and we will share how hospitals are implementing this program already and seeing results, QUICK!</div>   					 				</td>				<td class="wsite-multicol-col" style="width:24.83660130719%; padding:0 15px;"> 					 						  <div class="wsite-spacer" style="height:50px;"></div>   					 				</td>			</tr> 		</tbody> 	</table> </div></div></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Introducing: The Miele Flex Series]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.colcominc.com/blog/the-miele-flex-series]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.colcominc.com/blog/the-miele-flex-series#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Wed, 26 Oct 2016 17:04:14 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.colcominc.com/blog/the-miele-flex-series</guid><description><![CDATA[An undercounter washer with real muscle power.          	 		 			 				 					 						     					 								 					 						  &#8203;Reproducibility in results all while washing glassware quickly and efficiently is the most desired of results in any glass wash area.
