TeleTracking Technologies, Hill-Rom Company and GOJO have partnered to combine their services in a real time hand hygiene compliance service.
TeleTracking's Real-Time Locating System, GOJO's SMARTLINK Technology and Hill-Rom's Hand Hygiene Compliance Solution will allow hospitals and health systems to record and monitor the hand hygiene compliance habits of their employees.
"TeleTracking's AssetTracking® RTLS technology gives hospitals status and location on equipment and supplies for staff throughout the organization, from a nurse in need of specific supplies for a patient to an IT manager trying to locate equipment for preventative maintenance. Now, that same locating technology is also able to establish whether the hands caring for those patients are clean. The concept is simple, but the impact in terms of patient outcomes is immeasurable," said Michael Gallup, president of TeleTracking Technologies, in a news release.
