Unique benefits of the forWard headwall system (in addition to those listed above) include:
- Easy removal of outlets or gases without having to cut into a finished wall.
- Plug and Play
- Eliminates the need for bed locators and impact-resistant wall coverings.
- Construction materials can include antimicrobial properties, reducing contamination and infection.
- Aesthetic appeal with paneling available in multiple colors, woodgrains, patterns and textures to create a sophisticated and calming atmosphere.
- forWard headwall panels can be all walls of the patient room, including footwalls with recessed PV.
- The forWard headwall system is unique in that it carries an STC rating of 51, as compared to typical drywall partitions, which carry a 45 STC rating. These superior acoustical properties assist in the desire for a “quiet” hospital, increasing patient privacy.
- When maintenance is required inside the headwall, time, revenue, and energy will be saved due to our patented “lock-in” construction. Since the forWard headwall system eliminates the need for drywall, paint, or wall protection, infection control measures are significantly shortened.
- Easily cleaned
