The Patient Zone is an electronically monitored zone set up around the patient’s bed to detect every hand hygiene opportunity. A beacon on the bed provides continuous monitoring even when the patient’s bed is moved. The different components in the system gather and transmit information, which can be accessed on a hospital’s dashboard.

The Patient Zone
The bed kit creates a zone around the patient to indicate if the healthcare worker washes their hands or sanitizes before and after patient contact.
Immediate Feedback
The badge, worn by all healthcare workers, measures and records every hand hygiene event by individual. Visual and audible feedback is immediate.
Robust Reporting
Data is compiled to track performance by individual, department, hospital or system. Compliance trends are reported as well as equipment status, sanitizer and soap levels and battery life.
Little to No IT Involvement
The system is not tied to the hospital’s network. It does not utilize private or public Wi-Fi, and does not require hardwiring.
Customizable, clinician-friendly dashboards collect data on individual hand hygiene behaviors, measure compliance and pinpoint precisely where corrective action is needed, down to a department, team or individual level.
