We truly want patients to be well cared for; we consider entertainment and information to be a vital part of the healing process.
In over 40 years, PDi has been an industry leader for patient television systems. We strive to serve the healthcare industry exclusively, and that's evident in our product design, installation, and approach in improving upon those products.
We are well known for our healthcare-grade televisions, arm mounts, and software. Take a look at our most popular options.
You read that right. We design, manufacture, and build PDi healthcare televisions here in the USA.
