AeroScout Hand Hygiene Compliance Monitoring

Accurate, Continuous and Objective Hand Hygiene Monitoring 

Drive patient safety and turn caregivers into hand hygiene champions

Improve patient safety 

Proper hand hygiene is known to reduce hospital-acquired infections (HAIs), which cost the healthcare industry billions of dollars every year and are a top patient safety concern. Automated hand washing compliance detection gives you the tools to measure and then improve hand hygiene performance.

Move from estimates to actuals

Manual observation of compliance can provide a false picture. Observations are only “spot checks” and may be subject to the Hawthorne Effect/observation bias, resulting in inaccurate data. The AeroScout solution gives you a true picture of compliance, right down to the individual.

Motivate and support caregivers

With data that is impartial and easily shared, the AeroScout solution puts each caregiver in charge of their own performance. You can identify your hand hygiene “champions” and have them mentor their peers in need of improvement. 

A foundation for continuous improvement

Over time, your hospital will develop a detailed understanding of compliance by unit, shift, role and individual, giving you the information you need to target problem areas and drive continued performance improvements.
