Tablets have really taken off in the health care industry, and the only place they were ever successful before manufacturers started putting Android on them and selling them as big MIDs. Designer Geoffrey Cooper has designed an incredible looking concept device for Toshiba that would be ideal for the health care industry.

The Toshiba Rx Medical Tablet, would feature an all-white body and a huge multi-touch screen. The body would be “wipe-clean” safe, in case some… bodily fluids were spilled on the device, it could be easily cleaned up. It would feature a carrying handle on the back so nurses and doctors could easily lug it around their offices.
The docking stations which would feature a full QWERTY keyboard would replace desktop computers around the hospital as doctors and nurses would just plug their trusty tablet companion into the docking stations and use them in place of the desktops. No word on if Toshiba is actively working on this concept, or if it will ever come out.
The traditional “tablet PC” that are running full versions of Windows have largely been unpopular and sold poorly in the consumer space, but they have done well in the health care enterprise field. This, of course, has been compounded by the big push in the United States for all health care institutions to digitize and standardize all medical records in the country.
At any rate, the Toshiba Rx Medical Tablet is likely just a concept at this point, and may never come out.
