Not all new technology makes life easier for hospital professionals

"Technological advances in medical care have been spectacular and costly, but labor-saving innovations are harder to come by because of the inherently handicraft nature of medical activities." (Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan)

But, there is one area where new technology really can free up hospital professionals. And that is the manual transport of materials—pushing carts from one location to another.

Studies show that 25% or more of hospital transport is performed by professionals, including nurses and pharmacists, whose skills are being wasted on errands.

On that basis, it's easy to see how the Tug^® can take over a task that hospital professionals are now doing too often. And how this could restore a significant amount of time back to actual patient care.
