Recognizing that infection control and patient and caregiver safety are serious issues for healthcare facilities, Health o meter® Professional Scales introduces Antimicrobial Keypads for their platform scales, wheelchair scales, and in-bed/stretcher scale. When bacteria come into contact with the keypad, the antimicrobial function disrupts the bacterial cell wall, killing or inhibiting bacterial growth. This helps reduce patient and staff exposure to various bacteria, germs, and viruses. For more information, visit /antimicrobialscales or call 1-800-815-6615.
