With prefabricated headwalls, components such as panels, equipment management channels and tracks, art pieces and cabinets can all be removed, switched and modified.

The headwall can be a valuable piece of medical technology that acts as the control panel and central hub of the room. It can facilitate access to the patient’s head and neck, make the workflow more purposeful and provide a place for everything needed for care.
