 Reach surgical teams in scrub areas with billboard-like displays. The exclusive GANDER® displays give your company guaranteed, direct access to surgeons and the entire operating room staff!

HOW THE GANDER® O.R. ACCESS SYSTEM WORKS

·         GANDER® O.R. Access display units are provided at a discounted price to surgical facilities in exchange for permission to place educational articles relative to the facility in the protected display area.

·         25% of the organizer displays are reserved for Gander's use. The remaining % is reserved by the O.R. staff, which provides them an excellent way to post important internal announcements and other educational material.

·         Located above scrub area sinks on shelves, the GANDER® O.R. Access display units clean up the clutter. These organizers are sturdily constructed and intelligently designed. They both store and dispense all the necessary scrub supplies!

·         For these reasons, GANDER® O.R. Access displays are readily approved and accepted by O.R. Supervisors.

YOUR MESSAGE AND OR BRANDING ON SPONSORED ARTICLES SIMPLY CAN'T BE MISSED!

·         There's a prominent eye-level display area for standard 8 1/2" x 11" window on the front of each organizer.

·         The dispenser opening, from which surgical team members take needed supplies, is immediately below the display area.

·         A protective transparent cover shields the ad display area, so materials stay neat and look fresh every day.

MARKETERS HAVE EXTRAORDINARY CONFIDENCE IN GANDER® O.R. ACCESS TO DELIVER A MAXIMUM ROI

·         This is a wonderful, new, targeted and "uncluttered" way to reach extraordinarily important decision-makers. Because of the scrub protocols, and thanks to the innovative GANDER® displays, you can now get your message directly in front of the busy people you most want to receive it...at a time when they truly welcome having something to read!

·         You get eye-level, very prominent "billboard-like" display. And there's essentially no competition for the attention of the surgical team-no distractions, just your message! This is even better than buying the back cover of a medical journal. Your ad can't be ignored, and it will be seen multiple times.

·         You can select from among several surgical specialties: General, Orthopedic, Ophthalmology, Gynecology, Vascular/Thoracic, Neuro/Spine, ENT, and Urology and Plastic.

·         It's a cost-effective medium that should be part of your marketing mix. Compare costs versus journal ads or sales rep visits...you'll see that GANDER® O.R. Access displays offer you, at relatively low cost, exclusive exposure to the right people at the right time.

SURGEONS AND OPERATING TEAM MEMBERS APPRECIATE GANDER® DISPLAYS

·         Their scrub area stays clean and well organized.

·         The team members can finally make effective use of what would otherwise be unproductive "downtime." Protocols require up to ten minutes of scrubbing for every member of the surgical team. With GANDER® displays, the team members (surgeons, circulating nurses, scrub nurses, anesthesiologists and others) are now able to read during scrub time. The displayed messages include not only informative articles, but also internal announcements from the operating room supervisor, along with abstracts and other CME-related materials.
