Howard E Cart 4-Tier 300x300Throughout the year we plan to highlight our various product management teams. Our goal is to introduce them to you, share what they do, and talk about how we help facilities all across the U.S.

This month meet our EMR Computer Mounts team; Josh and Elaine. These two work tirelessly to ensure they recommend the right cart/mount for your workflow that withstands the demands of the healthcare environment. IMS only represents best in class vendors. Vendors that work with IMS to deliver products modified to fit your workflow. I.e. ask about Zebra printer mounts to mount the printer on the cart saving steps and more importantly improving patient label accuracy.
