What does quality look like up close?

It's not just about the final product. It's about the focus, the care, and the pride in every single component. We believe the path to 100% elimination of boosting injuries begins right here, in the hands of our dedicated factory team in Batesville, IN.

This is the foundation of how we're Boosting Quality in Healthcare. More to come soon!

SAVE THE DATE! We'll be at Magnet & Pathway Conference 2025, in beautiful Atlanta, GA, October 8-10. Come see us at Booth 1943. If you have Hercules, we want to hear about how you're loving it at your facility. If you DON'T have Hercules, we want to show you what automated boosting can do for you, your staff and your patients, and show you how you can get it. See you soon!

Nurses are 7x more likely to be injured physically on the job than any other profession. But what about moral and emotional injury? Studies on these topics are in their infancy but early estimates put injury rates at 40%. In this video, our own clinical marketing strategist, Sarah Storer, talks about one of her memories around boosting and the "weight of what if" she feels from the experience. She also talks about why working for Hercules is so important to her and how her personal mission is that "not one more nurse" experiences the feeling of helplessness she did with her young patient.

Our mission is simple: not one more nurse or bedside caregiver should be injured in any way from boosting. No patient should ever be uncomfortable, especially in their final moments. Hercules for every bed, every hospital, every nurse, every patient.

Happy National Environmental Services Week! FACT: just like our hospitals could not run without nurses, they also could not run without EVS. EVS is a core component of keeping hospitals safe and clean, and contributing to overall staff and patient experience. Cheers to these teams and individuals, and thank you for all you do!

Happy ! This week we are pleased to share these photos from the ICU at HCA Florida Blake Hospital. They recently installed Hercules on their unit an couldn't be happier that will be subject to a manual boosting injury with their Hercules equipped beds. Congratulations to these nurses, techs, physical and occupational therapists, nutrition, radiologists, and any-other-specialty-in-the-hospital-that-is-asked-to-boost-patients!

It's no secret that nurses are incredible, and here's one more way they're doing important work for hospitals and patients. While nurse scientists are rare, they are instrumental in conducting research that keeps patient experience and hospital efficiency at the forefront. We spy a few familiar names on this list!

Nurse scientists are a rare but growing role in hospitals that address not just research, but operational and patient care pain points. Nurse scientists, also referred to as nurse researchers, are nurses who have pursued a PhD and conduct research. Most commonly found in academia, nurse scientists o...

Call us biased, but there's no better day than LAUNCH DAY! Congrats to one of our partner hospitals in Virginia on welcoming Hercules onto your beds. Your nurses, bedside caregivers and patients thank you!

We spy a few familiar names here! Congrats to these hospitals who have earned this top honor, "Magnet with Distinction." This elite level of designation is no easy feat and takes dedication and plain old hard work. What we love about this list is knowing that Hercules plays a huge role in recruitment, retention and employee engagement; it's no accident that we see some of our customers here!

Happy Nursing Assistant Week 2025. The theme for this year is "We are the Champions" and we couldn't agree more that these bedside caregivers are champions of healthcare.

📣LONG APPRECIATION POST INCOMING!!📣

CNAs, LNAs, STNAs, PCAs and techs are the backbone of every hospital, LTACH, nursing home, rehab facility and any other place that provides bedside care.

They are the unsung heroes of patient care, working just as many hours as nurses, but often on their feet longer, performing many more of the unglamorous tasks and taking the brunt of the physical component of patient care.

Hercules was made for you, too.

We see you. We see your strength. We see your dedication and care.

We see how many of you are working these jobs to put yourself through nursing school.

We see how many of you are working these jobs because you love the work.

We see how many of you are working these jobs because you love your patients and how some of you are their only friends when they have no one left.

We see how you are the "whisperers" of your units, how you're the only ones able to calm a confused sundowner, or one-to-one feed a difficult patient, or bathe the patient who has refused a bath for DAYS.

We see how efficient you are at a total bed change while barely disturbing the patient, how you did a glucose check on a wiggly toddler and they didn't cry, and how you deftly ran for supplies during a code before anyone had to ask.

We see you, and we agree that you are the champions of your units, your floors and your facilities.

Safe, effective patient care would grind to a halt without you and that's a fact.

Thank you. We can't wait to celebrate an entire week that is dedicated to YOU.
