PIPERSVILLE, PA – July 26, 2011 – Winola Lake, a provider of IT and point of care technology solutions to hospitals and healthcare organizations, has been chosen by Women & Infants Hospital to maintain their mobile computer carts. Located in Providence, Rhode Island, Women & Infants is a nationally recognized specialty hospital. Winola Lake’s team of veteran healthcare technology experts has been called in to improve the quality and service of cart management and maintenance.

“Working with Winola Lake has been a revelation for us and for our carts,” said Ken Thomas, IS Site Manager of technology of Women & Infants. “It’s been great to have more of our cart fleet back on the floors, improving patient care and extending the life of our initial cart investment.”
