Startling statistics

Did you know that your average hospital will have 33 workman's comp cases with an average of 5 days lost time at work. Almost all of them from straining and lifting when they should not. The average direct cost...$24.704.00 per incident with an estimated indirect cost at $24,704.00 minimum and more likely 5 times that.

That is huge expense for a facility, do the math and it is costing the hospital along the lines of $1.6 million annually. I contend that you will eliminate 33% of those injuries by using our vest as it should be used. So if you bought 100 vests at the institutional price you would spend the equivalent of 1/2 of one injury with lost time.
So you could save over $580,000 in direct and indirect costs. You earn back the investment 21.4 times in the first year. Wow.
