Emergency rooms are some of the busiest places in a hospital. Doctors and nurses work under pressure to provide life-saving care, but overcrowding, lack of privacy, and limited space create challenges that make their jobs even harder. During peak seasons and pandemics, these problems become worse. Patients in hallway beds have no privacy, while unorganized spaces slow down medical teams.

Traditional curtains and stationary partitions do not provide the flexibility needed in emergency settings. Curtains trap bacteria, take up space, and are difficult to clean. Fixed partitions block movement and limit reconfiguration options when space needs change. Many hospitals use portable privacy screens as an alternative, but most models are bulky and difficult to store.

Rolascreen is the only fully retractable privacy screen designed specifically for emergency rooms. Unlike other screens that stay extended and require extra storage, Rolascreen expands up to 10 feet wide and retracts into a sleek 9-inch vertical unit when not in use. This space-saving feature makes it the most adaptable privacy solution for hospitals, urgent care centers, and emergency preparedness teams.

Emergency Departments Need a Smarter Privacy Solution

Emergency rooms must be ready to handle sudden patient surges, especially during seasonal outbreaks, pandemics, and natural disasters. Without flexible privacy solutions, hospitals struggle to create private treatment spaces when they are needed most.

Many ERs face the same challenges, including:

  • Overcrowding and disorganized patient flow that slows down treatment.
  • Limited triage areas that reduce efficiency.
  • Hallway beds with no privacy, making patients feel exposed.
  • Rigid layouts that do not allow for quick space reconfiguration.

Hospitals need a privacy solution that is easy to move, deploy, and store. Many portable screens claim to be mobile, but most do not retract, leaving hospitals with bulky, difficult-to-manage barriers. Rolascreen solves this problem with its patented retractable design, giving hospitals the flexibility to create instant treatment spaces and remove them just as fast.

What Makes Rolascreen Different?

The Only Fully Retractable Privacy Screen

Unlike other portable privacy screens, Rolascreen does not stay extended when not in use. It retracts into a compact vertical unit, taking up less space and allowing ER teams to adjust their layouts instantly.

  • Expands up to 10 feet wide for instant patient privacy.
  • Retracts into a 9-inch storage unit, maximizing available space.
  • Deploys in seconds to create private triage and treatment areas.

Faster and More Efficient Than Curtains or Fixed Partitions

Curtains are difficult to maintain, require frequent washing, and can spread bacteria. Fixed partitions take up permanent space and cannot be adjusted when patient volume increases.

Our privacy screens eliminate these problems with a modern retractable design that allows hospitals to:

  • Save time with one-touch deployment.
  • Maximize efficiency by using space only when needed.
  • Improve workflow by keeping hallways clear.

Emergency rooms need a privacy solution that adapts to fast-changing situations. Unlike rigid partitions that restrict movement, our screens allow staff to create and remove private spaces instantly without disrupting patient care.

  • Lightweight and easy to maneuver, making rapid adjustments possible.
  • Non-porous, easy-to-clean surface that supports hospital-grade infection control.
  • No hinges, tracks, or fabric folds where bacteria can collect.

Customizable for Comfort and Branding

Privacy screens should do more than just divide spaces. Rolascreens can be customized with branding, calming imagery, or functional signage to create a better patient experience.

  • Nature scenes help reduce patient stress.
  • Hospital branding creates a polished, professional look.
  • Transparent or semi-transparent options allow for controlled visibility.
