Nurture by Steelcase

The Opus^TM Overbed Table from Nurture by Steelcase is more than just a place for patient meals. It supports nearly every activity in the room. The thoughtful design has two surfaces: a stationary, standing-height surface for care providers and a height-adjustable surface for patients that features a non-handed concave shape and soft corner radii. As durable as it is versatile, the Opus Overbed Table recently won the gold award at NeoCon^® in the healthcare furniture category.
