Sacramento based start-up TAGCarts helping pop-up hospitals in the field | Everyday Heroes

Topic: Taggart Neal created a start-up that provides medical carts to pop-up field hospitals.

KXTV likes to highlight those in our community making a difference, and Taggart Neal was recently featured on the news as well as his start-up TAGCarts™ which helps medical and hospital workers lower their risk of cross-contamination that comes along with using a “community” medical cart.

TAGCarts™ are designed as an affordable and disposable cardboard-based medical cart that nurses and hospital workers can supply with gloves, masks and other personal protection equipment [PPE] crucial to limit the spread of the coronavirus as well as treat the many who have become infected.

HEROCarts™ are also disposable. When a field hospital closes, these carts can be recycled.

Taggart Neal and his exciting start-up have partnered with the Sacramento Kings Foundation — several HEROCarts have been donated to Cal OES so they can be set up at multiple coronavirus surge sites.

HEROCarts™ was recently featured on FOX 40 as field hospitals begin to pop up during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pop-up PPE carts are all the rage right now in the medical community due to their ease-of-use, their disposability, and the fact that they allow medical professionals to store their own equipment in one central place to avoid cross-contamination.

These recyclable medical carts can be used at the patient bedside, coming stocked with gloves, masks, and more.

Veterans and people with disabilities have chipped in to make hundreds of these carts, some of which are headed for Sleep Train Arena, and others headed for the Navajo Nation in the Southwest.

During this COVID-19 pandemic, while many are feeling isolated, many individuals are rallying together to make a difference like HEROCarts™.
