Frequently Asked Questions
Common Procurement Questions
What is the difference between the HSL and HSM series?
The HSL series is designed for laptop-based clinical workstations — ideal for nursing rounds, bedside documentation and point-of-care use where a laptop is the primary device. The HSM series is designed for desktop or all-in-one computer setups in hospital environments such as OPD counters, ICU stations and pharmacy desks.
Should I use the MCT09 or HSL/HSM series for a hospital?
For dedicated clinical environments, RIFE recommends the HSL or HSM medical series. These are purpose-built for healthcare with cleanable surfaces and clinical-grade build quality. The MCT09-W (white) is suitable for general healthcare use where a dedicated medical cart is not required.
What is a mobile computer cart?
A mobile computer cart (also called a computer on wheels or COW) is a height-adjustable workstation on lockable castors that allows a computer, monitor, keyboard and peripherals to be moved between locations. Used in hospitals, schools, offices and industrial environments.
