How INDIVO Packs Improve Accessibility, Safety, and Efficiency in Healthcare

16 Mar How INDIVO Packs Improve Accessibility, Safety, and Efficiency in Healthcare

Everything you need – simplified installation & easy setup

Patient Safety’s INDIVO Packs are height-adjustable counters that are supported by wall-mounted, height-adjustable columns. They’re designed as a solution that both patients and healthcare professionals rely on for its usability and cleanliness. INDIVO Packs’ solutions are being used beyond healthcare in industries like hospitality, commercial kitchens, and rehabilitation centers as well, which we’ll cover in a series exploring INDIVO’S versatile use case.

What Are INDIVO Packs?

Created by Pressalit and known globally for ergonomic and accessible solutions, INDIVO Packs combine smart structures with easy-to-clean materials. Traditional counters have multiple legs or corners, creating many places for dust and grime to collect. The columns used to support INDIVO Packs have fewer contact points and eliminate tight corners, creating spaces that are much simpler to clean and navigate.

The height-adjustable counters’ smooth surfaces are easy to wipe and disinfect, and the counters can be raised or lowered, so anyone can comfortably reach floors and walls. With different sizes and weight options available, INDIVO Packs are built to fit a multitude of environments, like kitchens, labs, clinics, and more.

The INDIVO 220 can accommodate weights up to 220 pounds, while the INDIVO 330 accommodates weights up to 330 pounds. Both products are available in 3 different sizes.

Benefits for Patients & Visitors

Accessibility for Patients of All Sizes & Abilities

For patients and visitors in healthcare settings, having adjustable counters that can accommodate wheelchair users, shorter or taller patients, and those with limited mobility is a game-changer. Patients can comfortably use service desks, pharmacy counters, or therapy tables without needing additional assistance, which improves efficiency and saves time.

Inclusive and Welcoming Environments

INDIVO Packs’ height-adjustable tables and stations demonstrate their commitment to care that is inclusive, accessible, and welcoming, improving patient experience and satisfaction. It also reduces barriers and crowding in check-in areas, medication pickup, therapy sessions, or diagnostic stations.

Benefits for Healthcare Staff & Professionals

Ergonomic Workstations for Staff

INDIVO Packs provide not only an inclusive space for customers but also accommodate staff needs. Adjustable heights and easy-to-clean materials help staff reduce strain during long shifts assisting patients, prepping medication, or performing treatments. Similarly, staff of varying heights can work comfortably, reducing the risk of injury and improving productivity.

Cleaner, More Hygienic Spaces

Adjustability allows staff to sanitize higher surfaces or walls without overreaching, supporting infection control protocols while reducing physical strain and longer shifts at the same time.

Safer, More Efficient Operations

When staff can adjust easy-to-clean counters to a comfortable height, they maintain better posture, avoid errors and potential contaminations, along with reducing staff fatigue. With its intuitive design and ease of use, it helps establish a smooth workflow in high-traffic areas like pharmacies, radiology departments and patient care rooms.

Real-World Applications in Healthcare Settings

Hospitals & Radiology Departments

Height-adjustable counters are used at check-in desks, nurse stations, and diagnostic prep areas to accommodate wheelchair users and patients with mobility aids. The counters adjust for seated or standing interaction, while allowing staff to raise them for documentation and equipment handling.

Pharmacies

Handicap accessible counters are installed at prescription pickup and consultation areas for patients, which eliminates the need for separate lower table sections and supports efficient cleaning and infection-control protocols.

Rehabilitation Centers

Adjustable countertops are used as therapy workstations for patients undergoing treatment, and staff can adjust the height to assist patients safely, making them feel comfortable.

Administrative or Shared Healthcare Spaces

Shared spaces like break areas, training rooms, collaborative spaces, and offices that incorporate height-adjustable counters are more flexible and accessible for staff, patients, and visitors.

Make Your Healthcare Space More Accessible

Height-adjustable countertops are a clear commitment to inclusive, ADA-compliant, and patient-centered care. Removing physical barriers helps create a safer, more welcoming environment for patients, visitors, and staff alike.

INDIVO packs improve accessibility for patients while simultaneously supporting ergonomic and hygienic workplaces for healthcare professionals. The result is more comfortable, inclusive, safe, and efficient healthcare facilities that serve patients without getting in the way of staff maintaining hygiene protocols.
