RE:RE:Jets choose Citizen Care PodD-pods are mobile? Yup, I'll just borrow a Prius with roof racks, and a bungee cord, and quickly scoot from multiple rinks or multiple hospitals. I'll need a thick extension cord, at least 30m long, to plug it in, as well as a ladder, too.
The pods aren't selling because they are NOT mobile. To install one, as built, a hospital would have to tear out walls to install one or two in their laundry/housekeeping department(s) plus supply up-to-code hard-wired electricity to it.
At a guess: $250k for one pod, $350k-$500k to modify building to install one pod, and $15k-$25k to wire to the building. Hmm... $615k to $775k per hospital IF hospital has space.
Just for giggles, additional hospital staff to load pod, treat contents, and unload pod x 4 people/week x $60k/yr including est. 35% benefit package = $240k/yr. (4 staff doesn't give 24/7 coverage)
To make them mobile, you'd need a container trailer, a semi to pull it, and an access platform to get 'stuff' in and out. Workers would need a parka and gloves each until spring as pods aren't offered with heaters....
Hmm... Fluff? Maybe easier to special order 2mm vaccine from Alberta? Don't have to pay for that for a while....
To be fair, rinks, esp Bell MTS, would have accessible inside space to be able to have one D-pod w/o much modification of the building (wiring excluded).
