How To Choose 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.

In choosing an examination table which is used you have to put into consideration the comfort of your client. The patients who will be coming to your clinic are your clients and any client wants to find comfort in the place they are being examined in. Choose a table that the patient can lay on for hours without getting pain due to discomfort.

Another thing to look for when you are choosing used tables is strength and firmness of the table. You would be scared to lie on a shaky and wonky table and you don't expect any less from your patients. Choose one that they will be confident when they lie on it that nothing can happen to them.

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.

An examination can't happen without use of medical tools. There are exam tables which have draws for storing tools. Chances of misplacing these tools are minimized since you don't have to take the tools out of the examination room. Space will also be saved as not independent drawer for tools needs to be kept in the room

No patient will feel calm or at peace during examination when there are many conflicting colors in the room. The table you are buying should be of the same color with the paint on the room walls and also the floor. Let the colors be uniform and cool colors for a better examination environment.

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.

The last and the main thing to consider is the price of the used examination tables. You should only buy what is within your budget and not anything that you can't afford. Know what is too much and avoid it. You should not break your bank to get the very best tables in the market when you can get a good one at a relatively cheaper price.
