Meet us on the red carpet at HIMSS ’13

HIMSS 2013 kicks off today in the Big Easy, New Orleans! Healthcare professionals are descending on the conference to check out hot trends in healthcare, see the new products, and maybe hear more about Bill Clinton and his Foundation’s mission to improve global health, strengthen economies, promote healthier childhoods, and protect the environment.

Events manager Nate Johnston gets his style on testing out the red carpet pre-HIMSS

We’ve got the red carpet laid out to show off the star of our healthcare point-of-care portfolio, Ergotron’s next generation StyleView Medical Carts. They are hanging out in the cart corral in booth #3011 so stop over to take one for a spin.

@Heatherrou is our social bee, keeping you engaged in all the sight and sounds from the event. If you catch her avatar don’t be alarmed, she doesn’t have any monitor arms attached to her anywhere! She will be found manning the question of the day or tweeting with the cool professionals in the social media lounge. Look her up!

@betseybanker is ready to greet any of you media-types. She has some goodies ready for you if you stop by.

@djkiger and @ergosteve and the whole crew at HIMSS are ready to roll up their sleeves, and after a Beignet from Cafe Du Monde, get down to showing you why Ergotron has been a leader in healthcare for over 20 years.

We know you have a lot to grasp, from Obamacare to meaningful use, lots of new ideas to process through the brainbox. What we hope you remember is that whatever new process or compliance issue you are facing, Ergotron is well equipped to help you bring that information to the point of care.  

And while you are accessing that critical data, in the patient room, hall, nurse’s station, lab, or back office, why not consider standing while you do it? The act of standing more has a host of benefits including reducing the associated risks of sedentary workstyles. Over 80% of our point-of-care solutions offer you the option to sit or stand as your body demands throughout your shift. Here’s the concept in a nutshell—you care the patients and let us care for you.

See you on the show floor? We hope so. We’ll have the popcorn out for you. Just meet us on the red carpet for a new experience in healthcare history...

Going to Macworld/iWorld 2013!

Bill Reinhardt, Web Designer @ Ergotron

Youʼve got a week before youʼll catch me geekinʼ out in San Francisco; Iʼm set to jet next Wednesday toward Moscone Center West and Macworld/iWorld 2013.

I get to be the guy showing off a handful of headliners in the Expo Hall: the finest products Ergotron has to offer Apple users on the lookout for an even better user experience. My guess is that the eventʼs special guests will not be long to update their profile pics, smilinʼ with their WorkFits.

I was really hoping to get a chance to try a Leap Motion while Iʼm there, but I am not seeing them on the First Looks list. Nor do I see that nifty new Oculus Rift VR headset, but I am hoping the both of them will be sneaking in at the last minute. Either way, theyʼre each among the cutting-edge products that weʼre sure to see trend in ʼ13—products to get you moving—and well suited to those like myself who continue to sing the praises of a flexible sit-stand workspace!

See you on the show floor. Donʼt forget to drop by booth 305 if you have a moment. Just shove your way in past will.i.am if heʼs hanginʼ there all day.
