Handheld Tablets
The handheld survey tablet is the POV2000™, a portable,
handheld device which sits on a docking station base. The
survey tablets are approximately the size of a textbook, weight
2.5 pounds, and have large liquid crystal display screens
(LCD) and operate like a banking ATM machine. Patients read
easy-to-understand questions on the screen and answer by pressing
the response buttons. When a patient completes the assessment,
the survey tablet is placed on a docking station base connected
to your Internet enabled PC and a report is printed immediately.
A single survey tablet can be used to screen five to ten patients
per hour, and one docking station base can service two or more survey
tablets. Based on the size of your organization
and intended usage, we can help you determine the number of
tablets and bases that
best meets your needs.
