Hospitals are under increasing pressure: the ongoing shortage of nursing staff, overworked personnel, and declining job satisfaction are central issues. Studies show that around 21% of nurses’ working time is spent walking between tasks that could be better used for direct patient care. 
Moreover, hygiene plays an increasingly important role today. Automatic opening and closing of drawers significantly reduces the spread of bacteria.
