Description:
The Meditech™ "VSC" has been designed to provide a safe and efficient working environment in the Intensive and Coronary Care areas.

Positioning the VSC at 45° to the bed allows 360° access to the patient without having the encumberance of tubes and wires interfering with the clinical procedures.

The use of a VSC column frees up floor space that gives maximum access for portable medical equipment.

Monitors can be mounted on the front fascia at a height that allows excellent visual and physical contact without imposing on the work space.

To the rear of the VSC a staff work station is incorporated that folds down when not in use.

On all four corners a vertical equipment channel is incorporated that allows the mounting of accessories that can easily moved using the Meditech™ 'quick release' clamps.
