The introduction of ultrasonic bone density meters in pharmacies not only provides customers with convenient bone health testing services but also enhances the professional attributes and competitiveness of the stores. However, unlike the professional scenarios in medical institutions, pharmacies need to take into account practicality, compliance and operational efficiency when making purchases. The following are the specific key points for selection:
Give priority to portable devices
Pharmacies usually have limited space. Portable ultrasonic bone densitometers that are small in size and easy to move are more suitable for daily use. This type of equipment does not require fixed installation and can be flexibly placed in areas such as information desks and health check zones. It can even be adjusted in position at any time according to the flow of people. Meanwhile, the operation process of portable devices is relatively simplified. Store staff can master them proficiently after training and do not need to be equipped with professional medical staff, thus reducing labor costs.
Among numerous portable devices, the portable ultrasonic bone densitometer independently developed and produced by Pinyuan Medical is compactly designed, does not take up too much space, and can easily adapt to the layout of pharmacies. Moreover, its operation interface is simple and easy to understand. After a brief training, the staff can quickly get the hang of it, providing great convenience for pharmacies to carry out testing services.
Pay attention to the convenience and comfort of the detection
The testing subjects in pharmacies are mostly ordinary customers rather than confirmed patients, so the equipment needs to take into account both the convenience and comfort of testing. The Pinyuan portable ultrasonic bone densitometer is a device for detecting the radius or tibia. These areas do not require undressing to be exposed, making the detection process more convenient and friendly. It is especially suitable for elderly customers or people who value privacy. In addition, the probe of the Pinyuan portable ultrasonic bone density meter is designed to fit the human body curve, so it will not cause any pressure to the customer during the detection process, allowing the customer to complete the bone health detection in a comfortable state.
Pay attention to the popularization of data interpretation
Ordinary customers often lack professional medical knowledge, so the data reports of the equipment need to be easy to understand. The Pinyuan portable ultrasonic bone densitometer will automatically generate a test report, informing customers of their bone health status in simple and clear language such as “normal bone mass”, “reduced bone mass”, and “osteoporosis”, and generate editable test conclusions and suggestions, such as “appropriate calcium supplementation”, “increase milk intake”, “appropriate sun exposure”, etc.
Ensure compliance and after-sales service
Pharmacies are business premises. The ultrasonic bone density meter purchased must have a medical device registration certificate and comply with relevant regulations to avoid business risks caused by non-compliant equipment. At the same time, it is necessary to choose a manufacturer with a complete after-sales service system and clearly define the warranty period of the equipment, the response time for maintenance and other details.
Pay attention to the business value brought by the equipment
For pharmacies, ultrasonic bone densitometers are not only detection tools but also important carriers for enhancing business efficiency. The portable ultrasonic bone densitometer of Pinyuan Medical can provide multi-faceted business assistance to pharmacies. It can serve as a “traffic diversion tool” to attract customers. Through activities such as in-store experiences and exclusive member tests, it can draw residents from surrounding communities into the store and increase its popularity. In addition, providing professional bone density testing services for a long time can strengthen the image of the pharmacy as a “health manager” in the minds of community residents, enhance customers’ trust and reliance on the store, thereby increasing the repurchase rate of customers and bringing continuous business income to the pharmacy.
The core for pharmacies to purchase ultrasonic bone density meters is “customer-centered and operation-oriented”. Under the premise of meeting compliance requirements, choosing equipment that is easy to operate, has a good experience, and can bring business value can truly make this service a “plus point” for the store.
