Increasing Need for Bedside Storage
The Baby Boomers make up a significant portion of the U.S. population, and, as the Boomers age, the percentage of Americans over 65 — those that utilize the bulk of health care resources — will shift significantly. With more nurses than ever retiring, shrinking the working pool in the healthcare industry, ensuring quality care means providing nurses with the tools and resources they need. The future of nursing will focus on functionality and efficiency in healthcare storage and workstations.
Patient Room Casework Solutions
A patient room is so much more than just a place of rest. It’s a working space designed specifically around the ease of care for patients and nurses alike. Any time spent in a hospital can be stressful on a patient, so good ambient design is a must. Warm colors and space for personal storage is a basic necessity that can ease the stress of a long hospital stay — and that’s just the tip of the iceberg for good patient room design.
Casework is a modular option that is future proofed for years to come. With a variety of configurations, finishes, and hardware, every solution is unique. The careful planning of a patient room starts with cleanability, and ends with expectation, quality, and patient care.
Modular Nursing Stations
Nurses are the backbone of every healthcare institution. Save them time and energy with thoughtful, human first design. A modular nursing station can be made up on a variety of components that best suits the end user. As a central island, a nurse station provides easy visual access to the surrounding areas and serves as a focal point for central, high traffic areas. Scatter nurse stations as islands throughout the hospital to be closer to patients and to save time.
CoreSTOR Nurse Servers
FlowCARE’s newest partnership with CoreSTOR ™ Nurse Servers is an exciting addition to FlowCARE’s pull-out and pass-through nurse server options.

The nurse server brings necessary tools for proper quality care to the patient, saving nurses time and energy and improving quality of care.
