About the Event
Frontline healthcare professionals often face high-intensity physical labour when caring for patients. From patient transfers and lifting to standing for long hours, this leads to a high incidence of musculoskeletal injuries. This not only exacerbates staff burnout and turnover but has also become a core challenge that threatens the quality of care.
The emergence of exoskeleton technology offers a precise solution to this problem, bringing revolutionary change to the healthcare sector. These wearable support systems can share and assist with high-load tasks, significantly reducing physical strain and the risk of injury for healthcare workers. This enhances efficiency and allows professional nursing to return to its core essence: compassionate care.
Designed specifically for the healthcare community, this workshop brings together practitioners, innovators, and technology experts to delve into the latest applications of exoskeletons in clinical settings. You will learn how to leverage this technology to assist with patient mobility and transfers, and have the opportunity to experience these advanced devices firsthand, feeling the empowering force of technology.
Join us for this workshop to drive a workforce revolution in healthcare. Empower your team and add value to patient care. Seats are limited, register now to join us in building a safer, more efficient future for healthcare.
