According to the CDC, many patients receiving at-home healthcare could potentially have communicable diseases or immunocompromising conditions. Adequate disinfection in these settings is necessary to provide a safe patient environment. However, home healthcare nurses are often juggling multiple patients in a day, working a job where forgetting to sanitize one piece of equipment can have a potentially fatal result. Therefore, the best solution to put an end to this danger is providing patient specific home diagnostics kits.
MedSource Southwest has prepared Home Sphyg BP Kits in attempt to combat cross-contamination between home healthcare patients. The Home Sphyg BP Kit includes one (1) stethoscope, one (1) aneroid sphygmomanometer unit with gauge (cuff size – adult arm circumference: 27.5cm-36.5cm), one (1) infrared thermometer and a black zipper carrying case. This kit includes everything necessary for blood pressure monitoring by a trained clinician.
