Polyvision® Smart Glass Hospital Guide
How many GERMS are on your Hospital Curtains?
Studies by LiveScience, ScienceDaily, and the CDC, confirm that curtains in hospital rooms became increasingly contaminated once they are hung in the patient’s room. There is a potential danger as newer, drug-resistant bacteria evolve, providing a challenge to health-care professionals to limit the spread of outbreaks. Hospital curtains are changed when the patient is discharged. Overtime, no hospital curtains on the market today, stay Germ-Free.
Operating Rooms generally contain and spread the most germs, viruses, and bacteria. When an operating room is occupied, bacterial infections can spread on hospital curtains and blinds. Polyvision® Switchable Privacy Glass is energy efficient, cost effective and reduces waste from the fabric and cleaning of hospital curtains and blinds produces. Operating Rooms are required to be maintained in the highest cleanest, to protect both patients and health care professionals from invisible contamination. Polyvision® Switchable Privacy Glass can help every hospital achieve the goal of being Germ-Free.
