Furniture - ready to be wheeled into action
A new and innovative range of portable ward furniture, especially made to meet the needs of busy hospitals and medical centres, will be officially unveiled by David Bailey, Britain's fastest growing manufacturer of specialist furniture products, at the Healthcare Estates Conference in Manchester on October 4th.

The range which includes a versatile choice of bedside cabinets, wardrobes, storage units and writing desks, has been designed with movement in mind, ready to be wheeled into action to meet any emergency situation or day to day medical requirement.
“We have been supplying furniture to Hospitals, NHS Trusts, Private Hospitals and Medical Centres for 40 years,” said Tony Huggins, Operations Manager for David Bailey Furniture, “and in that time have developed a second to none reputation for delivering quality and innovation.”
“These have traditionally been fixed storage units or reception, counters and staff bases, but it has been clear for some time that hospitals need a furniture range that is robust and flexible enough to be moved at moment's notice, particularly in emergency situations, as we have seen in the recent pandemic.”
The new range of portable furniture has been designed and manufactured for the benefit of both patients and staff. Every product uses quality proven components such as industry leading “Blum” hinges that will faultlessly open and close – every time – ‘silent run' casters to allow for quiet easy movement, together with recognised security locks and other features to protect valuables and other essentials.
The bedside cabinets offer easy access cupboards for mobile phones and wallets which can be accessed by patients via inbuilt doors at the side of each unit, while the main cupboard has been traditionally kept at the front for larger items.
The cabinets together with the rest of the range have been made with a hospital environment in mind and are strong enough to meet the day-to-day challenges of moving beds and trolleys which frequently result in knocks and bumps. The units also meet the highest hygiene standards.
The David Bailey Range of portable furniture is now ready for immediate manufacture and can be seen on Stand Number D63 at Manchester Central.
