and Saving Lives  

Copper Bed Rail Overview - video
A new study released by Modern Healthcare shows published a published study and results
with copper hospital bed rails reducing the baceria levels and "HAI" (hospital aquired illness)
rates by 80% to 90% plus in patient rooms. The hospital bed rails are known to contain some
of the highest bacteria counts in patient rooms and the "copper" coated bed rails kill everything
they come in contact with including MRCA, Norovirus and other pathogens.
The copper hospital bed "upgrade" entails bringing in copper hospital bed rails and switching
out the rails in the hospital fleet and also replacing copper foot boards. The hospital bed rails
that come out are then coated in a copper alloy and then used to replace the plastic rails.
According to Michael G. Schmidt, PhD, Professor of Microbiology and Immunology, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston. Hospital aquired infections (HAI's) account for over 2 million illnesses and over 100,000 deaths per year making it the 8th leading cause of death in the United States The new copper technology is a major game changer for hospitals looking to improve patient and caregiver safety with the ability to ... more
