Sterile Storage Carousels in Healthcare

How They Work

Sterile Core Automated Picking CarouselsVertical carousels consist of an enclosed carrier system that rotates vertically like a Ferris wheel. These automated storage and retrieval systems utilize your facility’s overhead space to store more supplies in a smaller footprint. The carousel improves efficiency by bringing the needed carrier directly to the staff member at an ergonomic counter, saving time and effort.

Vertical carousels make excellent sterile storage solutions for hospitals and similar healthcare facilities. The system’s enclosed design protects sterile instruments from contamination. It allows instrument kits to be stored individually on trays to reduce the risk of packaging tears and better comply with storage regulations. Vertical carousels have a customizable design and can store other supplies, medication, and equipment in various hospital areas.

Healthcare Testimonials

parkland hospital

“Southwest Solutions Group assisted us in the setup of equipment and services for our offsite medical record warehouse housing over one million charts. They have moved over 330,000 records from the main hospital to the medical record warehouse in a weekend time period, and converted thousands of charts for us. They have provided us a new chart tracking system, labeling system, and file conversion services over a multi-month process. Their IT group was able to modify our existing records management software to “talk” to our main software program so we could print color coded labels for our medical record charts. In addition, they have provided many other services to Parkland hospital including file shelving, hospital storage equipment needs, and software support. Southwest Solutions Group does exceptional work.”

“Our experience with Southwest Solutions Group could not have been better. Matt (sales rep) was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Our shelving project required many changes and revisions and Matt never flinched when thrown a challenge. Many thanks to the installation crew for putting in a twelve hour day to complete our project on time. We give a 100% satisfaction rating to Matt and the Southwest Solutions Group team.”

“Thank you for your donation! I wanted to let you know that we ordered a donor sign for our storage room. The sign will be displayed outside the storage room located near the main kitchen/dining room. This should give you some good exposure!”
