Tips When Choosing Used Exam Tables

By Jocelyn Davidson


Starting a health facility can be very hectic and expensive with much equipment needed for the smooth running of the facility to be bought. To cut costs, many have decided to take the route of using used exam tables which are cheaper than new ones. There are many choices you can buy from as there are many businesses dealing with them but you have to be careful to buy the right table which will serve you better.

You have to place the comfort of your patients as a priority when you are choosing a table. Test for the used table's comfort by lying on it before you buy to see if it comfortable. If it won't be comfortable for you then it won't be to the patients and you shouldn't buy it. A patient will always go for check up on the facility where there is comfort

You wouldn't want to be examined on a shaky and squeaking table, would you? The same way that you would avoid that is the same with the patients. You have to make sure that you choose a table that is very strong and firm so that your patients will feel safe to lie on the table during the examination period.

Medical procedures and examinations can lead to staining of the table. Some stains such as those from blood will not go away when a material which is hard to clean is used. This is why choosing one with a vinyl cover which is easy to clean any kind of stain would be the best to buy.

You will need some tools as a medic to use when performing an examination on a patient. Some of these tools will need only to be specifically used in the examination room and not in any other room so storing them in this room makes it easier to know where they are. Instead of buying an independent tool rack you can buy a table that has drawers for keeping them

Patients will prefer a well maintained and organized area for their checkup or treatment. For this reason you should keep your room tide and matching. Choose a table that has the same color with your walls and floor for uniformity within the room. Make sure they are not dark colors or active colors which can make the patient feel uncomfortable.

Not all the patients you will handle will have the same condition. A table which will be best for examination of a given body organ may not be good for examination of another organ. If your clinic will be specializing on a specific organ of the body then choose the table that is made specifically for that use.

To buy used examination diagrams you will need money. Your financial power will be a key factor when you are buying a used table because you are limited in what you can afford. Compare all those which fall under your budget and buy the one that suits you most. Do not overspend on the tables and lack cash to buy other important equipment for your facility.
