Our Mobile Instrument staff is back from AORN 2010 Congress in Denver, CO! AORN is always a highlight of the tradeshow season, and this year was no different. It’s a wonderful opportunity for us to get out there, and get to meet so many OR nurses! We always appreciate everyone who stops by to ask questions, get information about the company, or just say hello. If you didn’t get a chance to stop by at this year’s Congress, be sure to come visit next spring!

This year, we debuted a gemstone jewelry giveaway at the booth (from Mobile Instrument, your “gem” of a repair company!), and it was a huge hit. We certainly had fun watching registrants oohing and ahhing over the jewelry pieces, not to mention the winners who were present picking out their favorite piece of jewelry!

The flight to Haiti carrying the donations left early January 28th, and is expected to be the first of many trips the hospitals will be making to offer aid to the earthquake survivors. Mobile is proud to be able to donate such much-needed supplies and equipment to the relief effort.

Mobile’s participation was spearheaded by Pablo and Debbie Sanchez. Pablo is a Mobile Territory Manager for Maimi, FL, and his wife Debbie serves as an OR Services Specialty representative.

Mobile is excited to be part of the new Premier award and growing ASCEND program, and we are anxious to demonstrate our capabilities, depth of coverage and expertise. Effective as of Dec. 15, 2009, Premier and ASCEND facilities can begin taking advantage of the new contract pricing and services provided by Mobile.

Mobile has been a recognized leader in the surgical equipment repair industry since our inception in 1978. You can be confident when you place your trust in us for repairs on highly technical items such as scopes, video cameras and power equipment, as well as onsite repair of surgical instruments. Mobile is the largest independent Surgical Instrument Repair Company in the nation with a fleet of over 165 service labs, staffed by highly qualified and certified technicians. Our National Repair Center boasts over 150 certified scope, power and instrument technicians and support personnel. We are not a broker. Over 98% of repairs are completed at our 4-facility campus in Ohio, ad our owned-and-operated satellite facilities in Tennessee and Southern California. Mobile is three times larger than our nearest competitor in terms of on-location service. Because of this, we are able to convert new business to Mobile seamlessly, without delays in service to either our new or existing customers.

We are dedicated to providing quality repairs, transparency in pricing, and exceptional service, to ensure that our partners optimize savings and quality outcomes for their clinicians and patients. For questions or additional information, Premier and ASCEND facilities may call our Premier/ASCEND Customer Service Hotline at 800-722-3675, Ext. 299.
