With the Kern MCN Chair Scale, weighing patients becomes particularly comfortable and efficient. The integrated Wi-Fi interface enables you to transfer weight values directly and wirelessly into the digital patient record – this helps avoid transmission errors and saves valuable time during documentation. Seamless integration into existing or future EMR and EHR systems ensures future-proof workflows in your facility.
High mobility and ergonomics are at the forefront: Four large castors, two of which have parking brakes, make it easy to move the chair scale even through narrow corridors or over door thresholds. This allows patients to be weighed conveniently in their own environment – an added benefit in terms of safety and well-being. The ergonomically shaped seat shell provides optimal support even for frail or overweight individuals. Folding armrests and footrests allow for easy, barrier-free transfers, for example from the bed to the scale.
The large LCD display with easily readable digits and intuitive operation provide noticeable relief in your daily practice. Thanks to the hold function, the weight remains reliably stored even for restless patients – leaving you more time to focus on the person. In addition, the BMI function supports you in assessing nutritional status.
The Kern MCN Chair Scale is class II approved, medically certified and suitable for a wide range of applications in nursing, clinics and rehabilitation. Whether operated via mains or battery: you remain flexible and ready for use at any time. Robust materials and a well-thought-out design guarantee a long service life and easy hygiene – for smooth team workflows and greater comfort for your patients.

Q: Saves time
A: This reason might be the most obvious, but it’s a clear benefit of an FAQ page. Not only does the FAQ page save customers time, but it also saves employees time as well. Having an FAQ page ensures customers don’t have to sit on the phone for hours waiting for simple answers, and employees don’t have to individually answer all questions.
Q: Earns trust
A: Information is available at the click of a button, but as we all know, information is not always true. Because of this, customers are more skeptical than ever before. They hunt for products by sifting through reviews, looking at the product on multiple websites, and doing price checking across the internet.
Q: Provides new insights
A: It’s difficult to get into the head of a shopper. Some buy on impulse, and others buy after thorough research. By tracking the clicks on your FAQ page, you can gather insights about your product or service that you didn’t know before. You can then inform your product team of these insights. From there, the product team can make changes to improve the product or experience.
Q: Drives internal page views
A: If you want your FAQ to be extremely thorough, which it should be, you can link to resources within your FAQ for your customers to find out more information. Whether you link to a blog that goes into more detail or a product page, this content helps the shoppers get the full story before making a purchase.
A: Prevents negative reviews
A: When looking through negative reviews, there’s almost always one thing in common: the problem could’ve been avoided.
