Look, No Hands!

From the time I was a kid, I have always loved to be entertained by a good magic trick. I would try to catch the TV special of David Copperfield or any other popular magician whenever I could. Who could forget when he made the Statue of Liberty disappear?!?

One of my favorite magic shows aired in the late 1990's called, "Breaking the Magician's Code: Magic's Biggest Secrets Finally Revealed". It featured a masked magician that revealed many trade secrets of some of the most popular magic tricks. He would perform the trick, then reveal the props used and/or the slight of hand that would cause the illusion.

Like magic, some equipment used in healthcare have some hidden features that create the illusion of special powers. For an example, Magnetic Mats prevent items from falling, allowing healthcare professionals to grasp for easy removal. Our mat in particular is intended to be utilized as a hands-free "neutral-zone" sharps transfer area. The reusable waterproof mat conforms to all surface shapes and can be fastened to drapes with a standard towel clamp for ease of access.

If sharps transferring has been an issue for your department, the Magnetic Mat is the magical solution you have been waiting for.
