Innovare Appreciates Nurses!

Innovare would like to thank the 4 million nurses in the United States for their amazing contribution to healing.

A true testament to the profession is highlighted in the Gallup pole; for more than 15 years, Americans have rated nursing as the no. 1 most-trusted profession.  In a poll conducted last year, Gallup found that 84% of those surveyed rated the honesty and ethical standards of nurses as “very high” or “high” — above that of doctors, pharmacists and teachers.

Innovare is proud to partner with hospitals around the country who employ professional and hardworking nursing staff.

Mobile Charging Stations in Hospitals Provide Peace of Mind

Hospitals Enhance Patient Experience by Providing a Solution to a Real Problem

Providing a Sense of Relief

When someone finds themselves in a hospital waiting room, they are typically there unexpectedly and are not prepared with enough cellphone battery to last throughout their entire stay. This has proven to be a significant problem for visitors because cellphones are their only means of reaching out to loved ones. Installing mobile charging stations into the hospital space has been significantly beneficial for both hospitals and local businesses, who utilize the digital advertising screens on these charging stations to get their messages out to target audiences.

Break Through Traditional Advertising Avenues and Beat Your Competitors to the Punch

Advertising in Hospital Space has Become Increasingly Popular and Effective

Finding the right avenue to reach potential customers is essential when developing a marketing strategy for your business. The way companies are getting their messages out has drastically shifted away from traditional means of advertising. More and more, companies are embracing hospital placed media as an outlet for their local advertising.

Spend Where the Eyes Are

Research suggests that the average American spends 2.8 hours a day in front of a television or computer screen. While that is a lot of time, it is a stark contrast to the average wait time in emergency rooms and hospitals, which can be upwards of 8 or 9 hours in a single visit. If you’re looking to promote your business locally, it’s important to advertise in locations that hold the attention of those you’re targeting. Not only do people spend a significant amount of time in hospitals, but there is also a constant flow of new faces that walk through the doors.

A Testimonial from Marketing & BD at St. Mary’s Medical Center

For St. Mary’s, implementing Innovare’s charging stations in our hospital was a no-brainer. Not only does Innovare invest in all the equipment, but they also do all installation, maintenance, ad sales, and updates. On top of that, they get approval from me for every ad and give us a portion of the sales revenue. Plus, providing charging stations for our staff, patients, and their families is really valuable. At the end of the day, their way of doing business speaks to what great people they are. Even after trying to get in touch with me for various reasons many, many times, they have never once shown any lack of patience! I really appreciate that kind of patience and understanding in a partner and highly recommend all of the Prime Healthcare facilities.

Alex Colley, Marketing & Business Development Manager St. Mary’s Medical Center

 

“When I started at St. Joseph Medical Center, I was thrilled to have stepped into the launch of first Innovare program within Prime Healthcare. There are basically no marketing initiatives that can be completed at no cost to the hospital so everything we try to do requires me to fight for new budget dollars. This appeared to be a huge win for our hospital as the entire project was free for the hospital. Innovare installed impactful marketing display technology which included a valuable charging solution for our patients, visitors and staff which now supports the overall on-campus experience.”

Ericka Beeler, MBA Director, Business Development & Marketing, St. Joseph Medical Center
