Residence Connect | Consult Plus Pod
Crafted to provide an optimal and inclusive video conferencing experience with a focus on comfort and acoustics
Digital technology is revolutionizing the healthcare environment, just as it has many other industries. This always creates new ancillary needs. At Spacestor, we have the design thinking to meet those needs, just as we have seen and facilitated this same tech-led transformation in other industries. The ever growing acceleration in virtual experiences has proven that video consulting, or telemedicine, can address some of the key issues patients face with traditional models of outpatient care.
​
Residence Connect is uniquely engineered to provide an optimal and inclusive video conferencing experience, and is specifically designed to overcome these challenges for the ultimate virtual consultation.
​
The Residence Connect is certified with a Declare Label! A Declare Label gives the
ultimate in material transparency, issued by the International Living Future Institute.

Acoustics
Patient confidentiality is a prime consideration. The freedom of the plug and play concept allows
for the Residence Connect pod to be placed anywhere, utilising waiting rooms, corridors and
community spaces. Confidentiality is maintained through a certified 49db sound rating with visual privacy controlled with obscure film to some or all of the glazed section.
Ergonomics
Residence Connect has uniquely been designed primarily as a video conferencing pod to deliver the best video conference experience. Stringent attention has been given to all aspects of the physical environment including internal dimensions, desk size and position, lighting colour, brightness and location, and airflow. With consultations lasting 4 hours, often under stressful conditions, the pod experience has to support the difficult task performed by professional users.
Finishes
For a high-traffic consultancy pod, a durable and wipeable upholstery fabric will provide the most practical and hygienic surface. The leather-look vinyl upholstery of Residence Connect has an additional proven vinyl protective coating that’s engineered to create a tough, effective barrier against germs, abrasion and stains, including protection against coronaviruses, including influenza.
Accessibility
Close attention to easy access has been built into the Residence Connect pod. All versions of the pod have a threshold strip allowing a preferred chair to be wheeled in. The DDA version includes automated door opening and closing for wheelchair users and side and end door options are offered to accommodate multiple configurations in different shaped spaces.
Relocatability
A key feature of the Residence Connect is its modular plug and play flexibility. As estates requirements change, Consult changes with it. The Consult Plus is designed to be broken down and reassembled, multiple times, with all parts reusable. Changes can be made by a Spacestor fitting team or we can train your own FM team to undertake changes.
Connectivity
The Residence Connect range is based around the plug and play principle. Modules are fully assembled with all services powered from one 3-pin plug. Options for data connectivity include wired ethernet access or connection to the main building Wifi.
Security
Security options include free access for security controlled environments or the option to restrict access to approved users; a key requirement if pods are located in public areas like waiting rooms or corridors. Pod accessibility can be incorporated into the building management access control system for minimum admin. Enhanced asset management can be achieved by incorporating this into meeting space booking systems ensuring a pod is always free for a consultant’s scheduled clinic.
