Pneumatic tube systems

Safety, Efficiency and Flow in the Workplace. Upgrades Hospitals Need

Too much work and not enough time and staff to do it, burnout in the nursing profession is growing. By 2030 we should see a shortage of over 4 million nurses across the globe, and by that same year 1 in 6 people will be 60 years or older. Over 83% of people in this profession state that they feel mentally overwhelmed on the job. Plus long hours, 52.2% of healthcare workers agree they are underpaid. Most nursing staff also states that they care for too many patients at a time, which could lead to less efficient care.

What could best assist them? High quality innovative tech that benefits employees and patients alike. Pneumatic tube systems could offer precision and swiftness in the workplace. Handling 10k plus transactions a day. Delivering documents 700% faster than human walkers. Cancer medication delivery goes from 10 minutes down to 2 minutes with the tube system. The system can be managed from a touchscreen, allowing staff to monitor maintenance issues and troubleshoot problems. Many hospital pharmacies are able to transport 90% or more of their materials in a carrier, and in Germany alone around 10,000 red blood cell units need to be transported daily. 

Around 1 in 5 hospitals could be considered high risk for financial default. In Japan 90% of public hospitals operated at a deficit in 2024. And many European hospitals are consistently faced with financial burdens. Upgrading to modern tech with a specific purpose in mind, would help clinical staff assist their patients in the most efficient way, and improve workflow and safety.
