A Case Study - Laerdal Medical

The different business that use our storage units


The majority of our customers use Self Storage for house moves, decluttering and business storage - all very purposeful uses which are commonplace in our stores nationwide.  However, Laerdal Medical is one customer that has grabbed the attention of our store staff in Plymouth.  Recently spotted wheeling life-like, bloodied mannequins in and out of the store, our staff simply couldn’t resist finding out more.
 
‘He gets some strange looks when he is wheeling them in/out of his unit on a stretcher’. Tanya Pick, Store Manager

 Our mission as we move towards 2020 is to help save 500,000 more lives every year.  Here in Plymouth, Leigh Rickards, our National Armed Forces Manager/South West Manager stores his demonstration mannequin, in a 100sq ft unit, often giving the staff a look-see at some of the new and improving medical simulation mannequin and explaining their capabilities.’

‘These mannequins are awesome, they can be made to cry, speak, blink, sweat and even sound like they are vomiting. They can probably do a whole lot more but that’s what we have seen. He even has one that is pregnant and can deliver a baby!’  Tanya Pick, Store Manager
