Intent Solution
Intent combines an all-purpose table with an integrated wall system. Together, they help caregivers in exam rooms use all sorts of technology naturally—what’s in use now and what’s likely to come next—so it becomes a tool for talking with patients and keeping the focus on the conversation. This improves the experience for everyone and builds trust.
With Intent, we use a design that incorporates ergonomics to improve the experiences of caregiver and patient alike. Intent’s table is height adjustable and mobile, so caregivers can place it where they prefer and where it’s most helpful in communicating with a patient. The waterfall edge is easy on the forearms. Convenient handles make it easy to move. Using the table with technology lets caregivers position it to foster face-to-face communication. They never have to turn away from a patient during a consultation. The table’s distinctive shape also invites caregiver and patient to gather around it. Cords are kept out of the way when using technology, so the space is safer and looks better.
