Solutions – The EconoLite Infinity Cart & Remote Management Software
This Mobile Computer Cart was chosen as it is light weight, height adjustable, ergonomic, easy to clean & is powered by hot swappable batteries. Please see the testimonials below to see what West Suffolk thought of the Cart.
“We’ve invested in their (Parity Medical) work stations on wheels, our staff love them, they fight over them, they literally, literally do on the wards and we want more of them. They are fantastic, thank you.”
“After a short procurement phase we decided to go with Parity Medical for our Mobile devices. They have been a huge success throughout the organisation. And they love them on the wards, so it’s been really good.”
“The one thing I really like about the Infinity Carts are the hot swappable batteries so we never run out of power when we are working in a clinical environment, which makes it a bonus point. It is actually helping us to achieve our Digital Road-map for 2020.”
“We chose the Parity Medical Infinity Carts because they had a wide screen which staff liked to use. The Carts are easy to pull along, and they can use them 24/7 so they don’t need to leave the Carts obstructing the beds.”
“I think the Infinity Carts have been essential for the ensuring that the nursing staff were able to use the electronic health records effectively. They allow the nurse to stay near the patient’s bedside and that’s essential for delivering patient care. We are really happy, seriously, we are more than happy.”

Remote Management System
Our innovative new remote management system is the perfect Solution for West Suffolk as it meant their growing fleet of endpoint IT devices could not only be managed, but also updated remotely. West Suffolk’s Andrew Smith was also involved in the development of the software to help suit the workflow needs of NHS IT Teams.
This system enables IT Departments to remotely manage all devices centrally:
“Having the Remote Management System gives us visibility of all of our Mobile Computers, saving me at least 2 hours a day compared to old equipment.” Derek Lambert – EPR Project Technician, West Suffolk NHS Trust, Global Digital Exemplar.
The Solution To West Suffolk’s Technical Dreams
“We actively monitor workstations to check if they have disconnected and this helps identify and target specific hospital ward areas to visit on daily ward ICT equipment rounding’s.”
“Now there is no need for technical staff to leave their desk to walk to the other side of the hospital as the Remote Management System’s Dashboards present many different views.”
“Now checks can be conducted by all levels of technical staff from the service desk upwards.”
